Question

1. How much energy is needed just to melt 0.56kg of ice at 0◦ C?

2. How much energy is needed just to boil 5kg of water at 100◦ C?
3. What is the specific heat of metal if its mass is 27 g and it requires 420 J of heat energy to
increase its temperature from 25°C to 50°C?


please help me out I dont have much time

Answer 1

This will require 266.9 of heat energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the energy required to raise the temperature of any given substance, here's what you require:The mass of the material, m The temperature change that occurs, ΔT The specific heat capacity of the material,

c

(which you can look up). This is the amount of heat required to raise 1 gram of that substance by 1°C.

Here is a source of values of

c for different substances:

Once you have all that, this is the equation:

Q=m×c×ΔT(Q is usually used to symbolize that heat required in a case like this.)For water, the value of c is 4.186g°C So, Q=750×4.186×85=266=858=266.858
