A 10.0 g ice cube is placed into 250 g of water with an initial temperature of 20.0 C. If the water drops to a temperature of 16

.8 C, has a specific heat of 4.18 J/g*K, what is the enthalpy of fusion of the ice. Ignore the fact that the ice, once melted, has to be heated again.

the mass of ice taken = 10 g


the mass of water = 250 g


initial temperature of water = 20 C


the final temperature of water = 16. 8 C


specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g*K


the heat absorbed by ice to melt = heat loss by water


heat loss by water = mass X specific heat of water X change in temperature


heat loss by water = 250 X 4.18 X (20-16.8) = 3344 Joules


heat gained by ice = 3344 J


heat gained by ice = enthalpy of fusion X moles of ice


moles of ice = mass / molar mass = 10 / 18 = 0.56 moles


enthalpy of fusion = 3344 / 0.56 = 5971.43 J / mole

For each pair, choose the compound with the smaller lattice energy, and explain your choice: (b) K₂O or K₂S.
dlinn [17]

the compound with the smaller lattice energy is potassium sulphide here the size of the molecule play a important role

The quantity of energy released by the electrostatic attraction of oppositely charged ions is known as lattice energy (L.E). The ion's size and charge affect the lattice energy.

lattice energy is inversely proportional to   size of ion and directly proportional to charge of the ion. They are each charged equally that is plus two and minus two However, because the Sulphur is larger in size  and the oxygen is lesser in this case, The lattice energy of potassium oxide is larger  the lattice energy of potassium sulphide  is smaller.

What is the name of a solution whose concentration of solute is equal to the maximum concentration that is predicted from the so
faltersainse [42]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is saturated solution.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given options:

Dilute solutions are defined as the solutions in which solute particles are present in less very amount than the solvent particles.

Unsaturated solutions are defined as the solutions where more and more of solute particles can be dissolved in the given amount of solvent.

Saturated solutions are defined as the solutions where no more solute particles can be dissolved in the solvent.  The concentration of the solute particles that can be dissolved in a solution is maximum.

Supersaturated solutions are defined as the solutions where more amount of solute particles are present than the solvent particles.

From the above information, we conclude that the given solution is saturated solution.
