Question

The heat required to convert ice of mass 2 kg at (-10°C) to water at 100 °C is ____joule. Take the specific heat capacity of ice as 2100 J kg-1°C-1, specific heat capacity of water as 4186 J kg-1 °C-1 and latent heat of fusion of ice as 3.35 × 10^5 J kg-1. ​

Answer 1

6061.2

Explanation:

be the heat required for fusion. Now, we know that the total heat required to convert 2 kg ice from -10 degree Celsius to 100 degree Celsius is the sum of heat required by the individual process. Therefore, the total energy required is 6061.2 Joules.
