As the amount of ice added increases, the change in temperature increases.
As the amount of ice added increases, the change in temperature increases.

As the amount of ice added decreases, the temperature decreases.
As the amount of ice added decreases, the temperature decreases.

As the temperature decreases, the kinetic energy of the sample increases.
As the temperature decreases, the kinetic energy of the sample increases.

As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.
As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.
