Physics, asked by sonachrislin01, 1 year ago

3.2 kg of ice at -10 degree Celsius just melts with a mass m of steam. the value of m is

a.900
b.425
c.800
d.650


PSN03: do you know the value of latent heat for ice?
PSN03: cause that is required to solve this question
sonachrislin01: for fusion or vaporization?
PSN03: both
sonachrislin01: fusion - 80 cal/g vaporization- 540 cal/g

mass of ice=3200gm

temp=-10

first the ice will get converted to ice at 0 degree celsius and then to 0 degree water

fusion=80

vapourisation=540

therefore

total heat given by steam=heat required to convert ice to 0 degree celsius +heat required to convert into zero degree water

=mS1T1+mL

=3200(10*1+80)

=3200(90)

=288000

this heat should be equal to heat given by steam

m*L=288000

m*540=288000

m=533.33


PSN03: then u are my senior
sonachrislin01: fine
sonachrislin01: what is the other way to solve
PSN03: we have to then take even the heat required to convert water to 100 degree celcius
PSN03: did u ask your teacher
PSN03: or friends
sonachrislin01: we tried...but not with teacher
sonachrislin01: I will give the correct answer tomorrow
PSN03: hey
PSN03: did you get the correct answer
