How much thermal energy is added to 10.0 g of ice at −20.0°C to convert it to water vapor at 120.0°C?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

7479 cal.

31262.2 joules

Explanation:

This is a calorimetry problem where water in its three states changes from ice to vapor.

We must use, the calorimetry formula and the formula for latent heat.

Q = m . C . ΔT

Q = Clat . m

First of all, let's determine the heat for ice, before it melts.

10 g . 0.5 cal/g°C ( 0° - (-20°C) = 100 cal

Now, the ice has melted.

Q = Clat heat of fusion . 10 g

Q = 79.7 cal/g . 10 g → 797 cal

We have water  at 0°, so this water has to receive heat until it becomes vapor. Let's determine that heat.

Q = m . C . ΔT

Q = 10 g . 1 cal/g°C (100°C - 0°C) → 1000 cal

Water is ready now, to become vapor so let's determine the heat.

Q = Clat heat of vaporization . m

Q = 539.4 cal/g . 10 g → 5394 cal

Finally we have vapor water, so let's determine the heat gained when this vapor changes the T° from 100°C to 120°

Q = m . C . ΔT

Q = 10 g . 0.470 cal/g°C . (120°C - 100°C) → 94 cal

Now, we have to sum all the heat that was added in all the process.

100 cal + 797 cal + 1000 cal + 5394 cal + 94 cal =7479 cal.

We can convert this unit to joules, which is more acceptable for energy terms.

1 cal is 4.18 Joules.

Then, 7479 cal are (7479 . 4.18) = 31262.2 joules

During which geologic period did a major orogeny form the Taconic Mountains ?
kakasveta [241]

Answer: Originally viewed as a single event, the Taconic orogeny is now known to consist of at least three episodes. The first took place in the Early Ordovician Epoch near Maine and Newfoundland. The second was centred on eastern Tennessee in the Middle Ordovician Epoch.
