Question

Transcribed Image Text:A tank of water has been outdoors in cold weather, and a slab of ice 5.7 cm thick has formed on its surface (see the figure). The air
above the ice is at -12°C. Calculate the rate of formation of ice (in centimeters per hour) on the ice slab. Take the thermal conductivity
of ice to be 0.0040 cal/s-cm-Co, its density to be 0.92 g/cm³, and its latent heat of fusion to be 333 kJ/kg. Assume no energy transfer
through the tank walls or bottom.

When it is liquid, its heat capacity is 568.6 J/kgK. The latent heat for the transition from solid to liquid is 15100 J/kg. Liquid odium has a freezing temperature of 331.96 K and a heat capacity of 439.8 J/kgK. When solid, its heat capacity is 343.8 J/kgK. The latent heat for the transition from solid to liquid is 11000 J/kg. A 4.42 kg block of honorite at 261.05 K is immersed in 14.17 kg of liquid odium at 390.01 K and left to achieve thermal equilibrium in an isolated, insulated container. How much energy was gained by the odium during this process? (A positive value means energy was added. A negative value means energy was lost.)arrow_forward
