I was pouring myself some pop the other day in a small styrofoam glass filled with ice. Less than 30 sec. later, after guzzleing down the drink, I noticed that the size of the ice cubes in the glass had decreased dramatically. Why did the ice melt so quickly? Could the dramatic melting of the ice have to do with the fizz of the pop (CO2) or does it have to do with the sodium that is in the pop?
