Answer

### From the water to the ice

Explanation

## Step 1: Identify the heat source### The hotplate is the heat source, heating the water.## Step 2: Determine the direction of heat flow### Heat flows from a hotter object to a cooler one.## Step 3: Analyze the scenario after adding ice### When ice is added to the hot water, heat will transfer from the water (hotter) to the ice (colder).
