Answer:
Q = 30355.2 J
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Mass of ice = 120 g
Initial temperature = -5°C
Final temperature = 115°C
Energy required = ?
Solution:
Specific heat capacity of ice is = 2.108 j/g.°C
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
Q = m.c. ΔT
ΔT = T2 -T1
ΔT = 115 - (-5°C)
ΔT = 120 °C
Q = 120 g × 2.108 j/g.°C × 120 °C
Q = 30355.2 J
