How much boiling water at 100^@C Is needed to melt 2 kg of ice is that the mixture which is all water is at 0^@C?[Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 JK^(-1) and specific latent heat of ice = 336 Jg^(-1) ]

Answer»

Solution :Given , mass of ICE =2 kg = 2000 G .
Let m be themass of boiling water required
Heat lost =Heat GAINED
`m xx c xx Deltat =mxxL`
m x 4.2 x (100-0) = 2000 x 336
`m=(2000xx336)/(4.2xx100)`
=1600 g or 1.6 kg
