Answer: Two statements are true.

B. Water molecules move from their fixed position.

D. The temperature of the ice increases as it melts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ice is the solid state of water. The inter-molecular forces in ice is very strong.

But when we increase the temperature of ice then the inter-molecular force becomes weak and water molecules move from their fixed position and the inter-molecular force break then ice starts to melt.

When we the temperature increase of the ice then ice melts.

Hence, Two statements are true.

B. Water molecules move from their fixed position.

D. The temperature of the ice increases as it melts.
