Answer

  1. Heat was used for changing ice at 0∘C to water at 0∘C

Explanation:

The temperature does not rise for some time because heat was used for changing ice at 0∘C to water at 0∘C.

When heat is given to solid ice, it first absorbs energy to convert into liquid water.

After some time, when it converts into liquid water, temperature starts increasing.
