Answer:
Total energy required to raise the temperature of 425 g of tin from 298.15 K to 505.05 K and to melt the tin at 505.05 K is 45.249 kiloJoules.
Explanation:
Mass of the tin ,m= 425 g
Heat capacity of the tin ,c= 0.227 J/g K
Initial temperature of the tin ,= 25.0 °C = 298.15 K
Final temperature of the tin, = 231.9 °C = 505.05 K
Let the heat required to change the temperature of tin from 298.15 K to 505.05 K be Q.
Heat required to melt tin at 505.05 K be Q'
The heat of fusion of tin metal =
Total energy required to raise the temperature of 425 g of tin from 298.15 K to 505.05 K and to melt the tin at 505.05 K is:
= Q+Q' = 19.961 kJ + 25.288 kJ = 45.249 kJ
