Title.. no other solid behaves like ice does.. you can’t stick ur tongue on a cold rock or stick two cold rocks together and they stuck together or slip on another solid rock.. why is that?
In: 2
Because heat (from your tongue) and pressure (from stepping on it, which also creates heat) melts a bit of the ice, creating water. This little bit of water reduces friction, which makes it slippery. As for the stickiness: the now melted ice will re-freeze if it’s cold enough for it to do this, and so will the moisture on your tongue. This creates a new layer of ice, which makes it sticky.
