How many calories of heat energy are required to melt 20 grams of ice at 0 °c?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marta_Voda [28]4 years ago
3 0
The latent heat of fusion of ice is 80 calories per gram. This means that if we have 20 grams of ice to be melted from solid to liquid at the freezing point of 0 degrees C, we find the total heat requirement by:
Q = m(Lf) = (20 g)(80 cal/g) = 1600 calories
So the total heat requirement is 1600 calories.

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:Reliability

Explanation:

Reliability of a test refers to how consistently a test measures a characteristic under the same conditions.

Reliability can be defined as the degree of consistency of which a chemical test gives a similar result. measure. A test is said to be highly reliable when it gives the same repeated result under the same conditions of measure.

But when a test gives different results under the same condition of measure it has a low reliability.

Hence, If a test yields consistent results every time it is used, it has a high degree of reliability.

The period of a ripple on a lake is half a second. what is the frequency of the wave
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

2 Hertz

Explanation:

<em>The frequency would be 2 Hertz.</em>

<u>The frequency of a wave is defined as the rate at which the particles of a medium vibrates when the wave is passed through it while the period of a wave is the time it takes the particles to make a complete cycle of vibration.</u>

The frequency of a wave is inversely related to its period and is defined by the following equation:

f = 1/t, where f is the frequency (in hertz) and t is the period (in seconds).

Hence, if the period of a ripple is 1/2 or 0.5 seconds, the frequency becomes;

f = 1/0.5 = 2 Hertz
