6.02 kJ&gt;mol. When a small ice cube at -10°C is put into a cup of water at room temperature, which of the following plays a gr
9966 [12]

Answer:

Heat transfer during melting of ice plays greater role in cooling of liquid water.

Explanation:

Temperature of ice = -10 °c

Temperature of water = 0 °c

When ice cube is dipped in to the water.the heat transfer

Q = m c ΔT

⇒ Q = 1 × 2.01 × 10

⇒ Q = 20.1 KJ

Heat transfer during melting of ice Q_{melt} = latent heat of ice

Latent heat of ice = 334 KJ

⇒ Q_{melt} = 334 KJ

Heat transfer during melting of ice is greater value than heat transfer during warming of ice from -10°C to 0°C.

Thus heat transfer during melting of ice plays greater role in cooling of liquid water.
