Question

Which of the two , 1 g of ice at 0 ºC or 1 g of water at 0 ºC contains more heat? Give reason

Answer 1

Hey friend,

Here's your answer,


Ice at 0°C contains more heat than water at the same temperature. This is because the temperature of 0°C is the melting point of ice. The latent heat of melting of ice is 3.34 × 10^5 joules per kilogram.

Hence, ice takes 3.34×10^5 joules of its latent heat from that substance and hence cools the substance more effectively.

On the other hand, water at the same temperature of 0°C doesn't c contain latent heat.

Hope this helps!!!!

Answer 2

1 g of water at 0 degree Celsius is more heated because it is just converted from ice to water by taking heat from surroundings which is known as scientifically latent heat of fusion . So you can write in your exam answer as Due to latent eat of fusion water contains more heat than ice at any same quantity.

Mark it as brainliest if it helped or else comment me for further discussion
