THANK U

Answer 2

This value with the options for the problem's answers. As can be seen, 30 cal/g is the closest value and is the correct response (4). Thus, the appropriate response is:

To solve this problem, we need to use the formula: Q = mL

Where Q is the amount of heat energy supplied, m is the mass of the substance, and L is the latent heat of fusion.

First, we need to find the total amount of heat energy supplied to the solid. We are given that the heat energy supplied is 200 cal/minute, and the time interval is 40 minutes. Therefore, the total heat energy supplied is:   Q = 200 cal/minute x 40 minutes  

      Q = 8000 cal

Next, we need to determine how much of this heat energy goes into raising the temperature of the solid and how much goes into melting the solid. From the graph, we can see that the temperature of the solid increases from 0°C to 30°C in 20 minutes and then remains constant at 30°C for the next 20 minutes. Therefore, the total heat energy required to raise the temperature of the solid from 0°C to 30°C is:

           Q1 = mcΔT

           Q1 = 100 g x 0.5 cal/g°C x 30°C

           Q1 = 1500 cal

The remaining heat energy is used to melt the solid. The temperature of the solid remains constant at 30°C during this process. Therefore, the total heat energy required to melt the solid is:

                   Q2 = mL

                  Q2 = 8000 cal - 1500 cal

                 Q2 = 6500 cal

Finally, we can use the formula for the latent heat of fusion to find the value          L= Q2/m

      L = 6500 cal/100 g

        L = 65 cal/g

However, we need to remember that the units of latent heat of fusion are usually expressed in terms of calories per gram, not per kilogram. Therefore, we need to convert 65 cal/g to cal/kg:

L = 65 cal/g x 1000 g/kg

L = 65000 cal/kg

Now, we can compare this value with the answer choices given in the problem. We see that the closest value is 30 cal/g, which is answer choice (4). Therefore, the correct answer is: (4) 30 cal/g
