I have a physics question

Suppose you take an ice cube tray and use petroleum/gasoline to freeze some blocks of it. What would happen if you: a) placed a cube above naked flame; or b) threw a cube against a surface which caused a spark?

    Well you need some hella cold temperatures to get gasoline to freeze solid. but I imagine it would... 1. Melt on contact with the flame turning the solid to the liquid form. 2. Vaporize into fumes. 3. The fumes would ignite the cube continuing the melting vaporizing process. 4.and for a short time you would have a burning "ice" cube.
