Calculate the heat absorbed when 542 g of ice at
Interpretation:
The heat absorbed when ice is converted into steam is to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Phase change is the process by which ice is converted into steam. Each phase change occurs at a constant temperature along with a change in energy. This change in energy is called the heat of that process,
The heat absorbed or released by a substance is calculated by the following equation:
Here,
The expression to calculate the value of

- Are changes in state physical or chemical changes? Explain. What type of forces must be overcome to melt or vaporize a substance (are these forces intramolecular or intermolecular)? Define the molar heat of fusion and molar heat of vaporization. Why is the molar heat of vaporization of water so much larger than its molar heat of fusion? Why does the boiling point of a liquid vary with altitude?arrow_forwardA quantity of ice at 0C is added to 64.3 g of water in a glass at 55C. After the ice melted, the temperature of the water in the glass was 15C. How much ice was added? The heat of fusion of water is 6.01 kJ/mol and the specific heat is 4.18 J/(g C).arrow_forwardWill a closed container of water at 70 C or an open container of water at the same temperature cool faster on a cold winter day? Explain why.arrow_forward
- Calculate the quantity of heating required to convert the water in four ice cubes (60.1 g each) from H2O(s) at 0 °C to H2O(g) at 100. °C. The enthalpy of fusion of ice is 333 J/g and the enthalpy of vaporization of liquid water is 2260 J/g.arrow_forwardThe enthalpy of vaporization of water is larger than its enthalpy of fusion. Explain why.arrow_forwardThe cooling effect of alcohol on the skin is due to its evaporation. Calculate the heat of vaporization of ethanol (ethyl alcohol), C2H5OH. C2H5OH(l)C2H5OH(g);H=? The standard enthalpy of formation of C2H5OH(l) is 277.7 kJ/mol and that of C2H5OH(g) is 235.1 kJ/mol.arrow_forward

(Use Table 8.2.)arrow_forwardFollow the step-wise process outlined in Problem 31 to calculate the amount of heat involved in condensing 100.00 g of benzene gas (C6H6) at 80.00C to liquid benzene at 25.00C. Use Tables 8.1 and 8.2 for the specific heat, boiling point, and heat of vaporization of benzene.arrow_forwardIn regions with dry climates, evaporative coolers are used to cool air. A typical electric air conditioner is rated at 1.00 104 Btu/h (1 Btu, or British thermal unit = amount of energy to raise the temperature of 1 lb water by 1F). What quantity of water must be evaporated each hour to dissipate as much heat as a typical electric air conditioner?arrow_forward
- 9.46 The heat of fusion of pure silicon is 43.4 kJ/mol. How much energy would be needed to melt a 5.24-g sample of silicon at its melting point of 1693 K?arrow_forwardEvaporation of sweat requires energy and thus take excess heat away from the body. Some of the water that you drink may eventually be converted into sweat and evaporate. If you drink a 20-ounce bottle of water that had been in the refrigerator at 3.8 C, how much heat is needed to convert all of that water into sweat and then to vapor? (Note: Your body temperature is 36.6 oc. For the purpose of solving this problem, assume that the thermal properties of sweat are the same as for water.)arrow_forwardOn a hot day, you take a six-pack ot a on a pcmc, cooling it with ice. Each empty (aluminum) can weighs 12.5 g. A can contains 12.0 oz of soda. The specific heat of aluminum is 0.902 J/g C; take that of soda to be 4.10 J/g C.
