Each element or compound has a molar mass, which is calculated by multiplying the atomic mass of each element by the amount of atoms of that element, and summing the results of each element. The molar mass is measured in g/mol. So you divide the mass in grams by the molar mass to get the amount of moles.
Example:
There are 5g of water.
Calculate the amount of moles.
The water's formula is H2O, so the molar mass of it is
g/mol.
The amount of moles is:
5g ÷ 18g/mol ~ 0.28mol
Answer:
10 kg of ice will require more energy than the released when 1 kg of water is frozen because the heat of phase transition increases as the mass increases.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since the melting phase transition occurs when the solid goes to liquid and the freezing one when the liquid goes to solid, we can infer that melting is a process which requires energy to separate the molecules and freezing is a process that releases energy to gather the molecules.
Moreover, since the required energy to melt 1 g of ice is 334 J and the released energy when 1 g of water is frozen to ice is the same 334 J, if we want to melt 10 kg of ice, a higher amount of energy well be required in comparison to the released energy when 1 kg of water freezes, which is about 334000 J for the melting of those 10 kg of ice and only 334 J for the freezing of that 1 kg of water.
Best regards!
