A curious student decides to conduct an experiment for understanding the relationship between thermal energy, phase change and temperature. With this purpose in mind, he picks ice cubes of total mass130grams initially at – 13.5 C. He then starts heating up the system until all ice cubes disappear and transform into steam. The final temperature of the steam is recorded as 106 C. Assuming no heat is lost to the surroundings, calculate the total amount of heat energy gained by the ice cubes during this process. (Note that Cwder =4186 J/ kg°C, Cice = 2090 J/ kg"C, Cen= 2010 J/ kg°C, L,= 333 kJ/ kg, Ly= 2.6x 106 J/ kg.) Q=

For a temperature increase of 10 at constant volume, what is the heat absorbed by (a) 3.0 mol of a dilute monatomic gas; (b) 0.50 mol of a dilute diatomic gas; and (c) 15 mol of a dilute polyatomic gas?
On his honeymoon, James Joule traveled from England to Switzerland. He attempted to verify his idea of the inter-convertibility of mechanical energy and internal energy by measuring the increase in temperature of water that fell in a waterfall. For the waterfall near Chamonix in the French Alps, which has a 120-m drop, what maximum temperature rise could Joule expect? He did not succeed in measuring it, partly because evaporation cooled the falling water and also because his thermometer was not sufficiently sensitive.
