Question

calculate the amount of energy required to convert 100g of ice at 0.00 degrees Celsius to water at 0.00 degrees Celsius

Answer 1

33300J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ice = 100g = 0.1kg

Initial Temperature of water = 0°C

Final temperature = 0°C

Unknown:

Amount of energy = ?

Solution:

The amount of energy is given by;

Amount of energy = mL

m is the mass

L is the latent heat of fusion = 3.33 x 10⁵ J/kg

Amount of energy = 0.1kg x 3.33 x 10⁵J/kg

Amount of energy = 33300J
