Final answer:

To convert 74 grams of ice at -4°C into 74 grams of water at 52°C, we need to calculate the heat required for temperature change and phase change. First, we heat the ice from -4°C to 0°C, then calculate the heat required to convert the ice at 0°C to water at 0°C, and finally heat the water from 0°C to 52°C. The total heat required is 41341.36 J.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the heat required to convert 74 grams of ice at -4°C into 74 grams of water at 52°C, we need to consider the temperature change and the phase change. First, we need to heat the ice from -4°C to its melting point of 0°C. The heat required can be calculated using the equation Q = mCpΔT, where Q is the heat, m is the mass, Cp is the specific heat capacity and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Q = 74 g x 2.06 J/g°C x (0°C - (-4°C)) = 607.04 J

Next, we need to calculate the heat required to convert the ice at 0°C into water at 0°C. This is the heat of fusion, which is 334 J/g. Therefore, the heat required is given by:

Q = 74 g x 334 J/g = 24716 J

Lastly, we need to heat the water from 0°C to 52°C. Using the same equation as before:

Q = 74 g x 4.18 J/g°C x (52°C - 0°C) = 16018.32 J

To find the total heat required, we sum up the heat calculated above: 607.04 J + 24716 J + 16018.32 J = 41341.36 J.

To calculate the heat required to convert 74 g of ice at -4 °C to 52 °C, we need to know the specific heat capacity of ice and water. We can use the following formula:

q = mcΔT

m = mass of substance
c = specific heat capacity
ΔT = change in temperature

The specific heat capacity of ice is 2.108 J/g°C and for water is 4.187 J/g°C. We will first calculate the heat to convert ice from -4 °C to 0 °C. Then we will calculate the heat to increase the temperature of water from 0 °C to 52 °C.

From -4 °C to 0 °C:

q = (74 g)(2.108 J/g°C)(4°C)
q = 624 J

From 0 °C to 52 °C:

q = (74 g)(4.187 J/g°C)(52°C)
q = 16,112 J

The total heat required to convert 74 g of ice at -4 °C to 74 g of water at 52 °C is the combined calculated heats:

Total heat = 16,112 + 624
Total heat = 16,736 J = 16.7 kJ
