Given parameters:
Heat of fusion of water = 334j/g
Mass of ice = 45g
Temperature of ice = 0.0°c
Unknown:
Amount of heat needed to melt = ?
Solution:
This is simply a phase change and a latent heat is required in this process.
To solve this problem; use the mathematical expression below;
H = mL
where m is the mass
L is the heat of fusion of water;
H = 45 x 334 = 15030J
A. Heat is transferred from your hand to the ice cube.
Answer: D. A neutron has no charge
Explanation: Neutrons are subatomic particles found inside the nucleus of an atom. This particle is neutral and has no charge at all. That is the reason why the nucleus is positively charge since only the protons exhibits a charge and the neutrons carries no charge.
