Question

Thermodynamics

Answer 1

Answer:

E = 3.8 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the object, m = 10 g = 0.01 kg

The heat of fusion of  aluminum is 380 kJ/kg

We need to find the energy required to melt the mass of the aluminium. It can be calculated as follows:

E = mL

So,

E = 0.01 × 380

E = 3.8 kJ

So, the energy required to melt the mass is equal 3.8 kJ.
