The stone is absorbed by the heat at a much greater rate than the air, making your skin feel cold, thus the stone feels cold to touch.
Marbles are nothing but the natural rocks with high content of Iron ore and they seem to absorb and radiate heat easily. This property can be compared to that of a black body in Physical terms. The heat convection in these rocks are too high making them easily freezing low temperatures value in winters. That's the main reason why marble flooring feels cold to touch.
(added) This is the same reason that bakers often use marble slabs in their kitchens - the cooler temperature of the stone tends to produce flakier pastry.
(added) The main problem of marble flooring is that when they cannot maintain the temperture and just go on with the external temperature and i think this is the mian draw back of this flooring.
marble is a good conductor of heat
it is because marble have strings in the marble and the string attract coldness so that's why
It feels cold because it is colder than your skin . Marble feels colder than say wood because the marble conducts heat more readily.

Heat flow determines how hot or cold something feels when you touch it.
Thermal conductivity most determines how hot or cold something feels when you touch it. The nerve endings in your skin determine what is hot and cold when you touch it.

Smooth, slippery and cold.
Personally, because you asked, when I touch a cold surface, my finger feels cold because it contacts some solid liquid or gas that is very very frigid.

Your urine comes out at body temperature, which even if dangerously low, would not feel cold to the touch. If your pee feels cold to you it is because it is wet and just feels that way without actually being cold.
Endothermic reactions increase their enthalpy by absorbing heat
Yes because it repells
