Consider the following two processes as described below: 1. The old fashioned hand cranked ice cream maker using a mixture of ice and rock salt to freeze the ice cream. 2. During a snowstorm, salt is scattered on roads and paved surfaces to prevent icing and melt away the snow quickly. Describe how we can we relate these two processes?
20.) You want to raise the temperature of ice at 0 degrees Celsius to steam at 110 degrees O Celsius. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/Cg. The specific heat of steam is 2.01 J/Cg, and the specific heat of ice is 2.03 J/Cg. Ice has a heat of fusion at 334 J/g and water has a heat of vaporization of 2260 J/g. Find the Q for this raise in temperature.
