Question

Container A contains 10.0 g of liquid isopropyl alcohol which has a latent heat of vaporization of 732 J/g. Container B contains 10.0 g of liquid ethanol which has a latent heat of vaporization of 841 J/g. Both containers are brought to their respective freezing points. Heat is then removed from both containers at the same rate. The container whose contents will freeze first is: container A container B the contents of both containers will freeze at the same time not enough information is given

Answer 1

Not enough information is given.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that both liquids are at their freezing points and that we are removing heat from them at a constant rate.

We need to know their latent heats of fusion, not their heats of vaporization.

We don’t have enough information to answer the question.
