Heat required to melt 0.05 kg of aluminum is 28.7 kJ.
<h3>What is the energy required to melt 0.05 kg of aluminum?</h3>
The heat energy required to melt 0.05 kg of aluminum is obtained from the heat capacity of aluminum and the melting point of aluminum.
The formula to be used is given below:
- Heat required = mass * heat capacity * temperature change
Assuming the aluminum sheet was at room temperature initially.;
Room temperature = 25 °C
Melting point of aluminum = 660.3 °C
Temperature difference = (660.3 - 25) = 635.3 903
Heat capacity of aluminum = 903 J/kg/903
Heat required = 0.05 * 903 * 635.3
Heat required = 28.7 kJ
In conclusion, the heat required is obtained from the heat change aluminum and the mass of the aluminum melted.
