Calculate the heat required to convert 3 kg of ice at -12 ^(@) Ckept in a calorimeter to steam at 100^(@) C at atmospheric pressure. Given specific heat capacity of ice = 2100 J kg^(-1) K^(-1) , specific heat capacity of water= 4186 J kg^(-1) K^(-1) , latent heat of fusion of ice= 3.35 xx 10^(5) J kg^(-1) and latent heat of steam= 2.256 xx 10^(8) J kg^(-1). |

K^(-1)) [0 - (-12)]^(@) C = 75600 J` <br/> `Q_(2)` = heat required to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/melt-1093077" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MELT">MELT</a> ice at `0^(@) C` to water at `0^(@) C` <br/> ` = m L_("f ice ") = (3 kg) (3.35 xx 10^(5) J kg^(-1))` <br/> ` = 1005000 J` <br/> ` Q_(3)` = heat required to convert water at `0^(@) C` to water at `100 ^(@) C`. <br/> ` ms_(w) Delta T_(2) = (3kg) (4186 J kg^(-1) K^(-1)) (100^(@) C)` <br/> ` = 1255800 J` <br/> ` Q_(4)` = heat required to convert water at `100^(@) C` to steam at `100^(@) C`. <br/> ` = m_("steem") = (3 kg) (2.256 xx 10^(6) J kg^(-1))` <br/> ` = 6768000 J ` <br/> So, Q = `Q_(1) + Q_(2) + Q_(3) + Q_(4)` <br/> ` = 75600 J + 100500 J + 1255800 J + 6768000 J` <br/> ` = 9.1 xx 10^(6) J`</body></html> | |
