Question

An arctic explorer is trying to create drinking water by converting an ice ball into liquid. The ice ball has a mass of 225g and is at an initial temperature of -23C. The explorer heats the resulting water to a temperature of 37C. The heat of fusion of ice is 334J/g and the specific heat of ice is 2.1J/(g K).

How much heat was required for the process?

Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1

Given that :

The mass of ice = 225 g

The initial temperature of ice = -23°C

The final temperature of ice = 37°C

The heat of fusion of ice = 334 J/g

The specific heat of ice = 2.1 J/g.K or 2.1 J/g.°C

The specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g°C
