Explanation of Solution

Pure substance: If chemical composition is fixed throughout, then it is known as pure substance.

The examples for pure substance are copper and zinc.

The iced water is a pure substance because it has similar regions. The chemical composition of the iced water for all the phases is same.

Thus, the iced water is stated as a pure substance.
