Question

Heat of fusion (?Hfus) is used for calculations involving a phase change between solid and liquid, with no temperature change. For H2O, ?Hfus=6.02 kJ/mol.Specific heat capacity (C) is used for calculations that involve a temperature change, but no phase change. For liquid water, C=4.184 J/(g??C).Heat of vaporization (?Hvap) is used for calculations involving a phase change between liquid and gas, with no temperature change. For H2O, ?Hvap=40.7 kJ/mol.Part AHow much heat is required to raise the temperature of 92.0g of water from its melting point to its boiling point?Express your answer numerically in kilojoules.

Answer 1

Answer:

q = 38,5 kJ

Explanation:

In its melting point, at 0°C, water is liquid. The boiling point of water is 100°C. It is possible to estimate the heat you required to raise the temperature of water from 0°C to 100°C using:

q = C×m×ΔT

Where C is specific heat of water (4,184J/g°C), m is mass of water (92,0g) and ΔT is change in temperature (100°C-0°C = 100°C)

Replacing:

q = 4,184J/g°C×92,0g×100°C

q = 38493 J, in kilojoules:

q = 38,5 kJ
