Question

10 g of ice at. 0° C absorbs 5460 J of. heat energy to melt and change to water. at 50 ° C . Calculate the specific latent heat of fusion of ice . specific heat capacity of water is 4200 J kg -1 k-1

Answer 1

given total energy absorbed which is equal to ml+mcdt
m is mass of water
c is specific heat capacity of water
dt is temperature difference
