What is energy required to melt (10.0 g) mass of aluminum that
is at its melting point? Knowing that the heat of fusion of
aluminum is (380 kJ/kg.)

Answer 1

E = 3.8 kJ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the object, m = 10 g = 0.01 kg

The heat of fusion of aluminum is 380 kJ/kg

We need to find the energy required to melt the mass of the aluminium. It can be calculated as follows:

E = mL

So,

E = 0.01 × 380

E = 3.8 kJ

So, the energy required to melt the mass is equal 3.8 kJ.
