Answer:
801.1 kJ
Explanation:
The ice increases in temperature from -20 °C to 0 °C and then melts at 0 °C.
The heat required to raise the ice to 0 °C is Q₁ = mc₁Δθ₁ where m = mass of ice = 1 kg, c₁ = specific heat capacity of ice = 2108 J/kg°C and Δθ₁ = temperature change. Q₁ = 1 kg × 2108 J/kg°C × (0 - (-20))°C = 2108 J/kg°C × 20 °C = 4216 J
The latent heat required to melt the ice is Q₂ = mL₁ where L₁ = specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336000 J/kg. Q₁ = 1 kg × 336000 J/kg = 336000 J
The heat required to raise the water to 100 °C is Q₃ = mc₂Δθ₂ where m = mass of ice = 1 kg, c₂ = specific heat capacity of water = 4187 J/kg°C and Δθ₂ = temperature change. Q₃ = 1 kg × 4187 J/kg°C × (100 - 0)°C = 4187 J/kg°C × 100 °C = 418700 J
The latent heat required to convert the water to steam is Q₄ = mL₂ where L = specific latent heat of vapourisation of water = 2260 J/kg. Q₄ = 1 kg × 2260 J/kg = 2260 J
The heat required to raise the steam to 120 °C is Q₅ = mc₃Δθ₃ where m = mass of ice = 1 kg, c₃ = specific heat capacity of steam = 1996 J/kg°C and Δθ₃ = temperature change. Q₃ = 1 kg × 1996 J/kg°C × (120 - 100)°C = 1996 J/kg°C × 20 °C = 39920 J
The total amount of heat Q = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃ + Q₄ + Q₅ = 4216 J + 336000 J
+ 418700 J + 2260 J + 39920 J = 801096 J ≅ 801.1 kJ
Radiation is the flow of energy by means of electromagnetic waves.
Explanation:
At first sight, it doesn’t make sense that both fission and fusion release energy.
The key is in how tightly the nucleons are held together in a nucleus. If a nuclear reaction produces nuclei that are more tightly bound than the originals, then the excess energy will be released.
It turns out that the most tightly bound atomic nuclei are around the size of iron-56.
Thus, if you split a nucleus that is much larger than iron into smaller fragments, you will release energy because the smaller fragments are at a lower energy than the original nucleus.
If instead you fuse very light nuclei to get bigger products, energy is again released because the nucleons in the products are more tightly bound than in the original nuclei.
