Answer:
Approximately (assuming that the melting point of ice is
.)
Explanation:
Convert the unit of mass to kilograms, so as to match the unit of the specific heat capacity of ice and of water.
The energy required comes in three parts:
- Energy required to raise the temperature of that
of ice from
to
(the melting point of ice.)
- Energy required to turn
- Energy required to raise the temperature of that newly-formed
.
The following equation gives the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a sample of mass
and specific heat capacity
by
:
,
where
is the specific heat capacity of the material,
is the mass of the sample, and
is the change in the temperature of this sample.
For the first part of energy input, whereas
. Calculate the change in the temperature:
.
Calculate the energy required to achieve that temperature change:
.
Similarly, for the third part of energy input, whereas
. Calculate the change in the temperature:
.
Calculate the energy required to achieve that temperature change:
.
The second part of energy input requires a different equation. The energy required to melt a sample of mass
and latent heat of fusion
is:
.
Apply this equation to find the size of the second part of energy input:
.
Find the sum of these three parts of energy:
.
