Express your answer in KJ
To do this you will need the following data:
Specific heat capacity of H2O (L) = 4.2 J/g degree C
Specific heat capacity of H2O (S) =2.1 J/g degree C
Specific heat capacity of H2O (G) = 4.2 J/g degree C
Latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.3 KJ/g
Latent heat of fusion (melting) of water = 336J/G
I found this question in my grade 12 Chemistry book, i tried to do it, but can't figure it out
Thanks
How much energy is needed to convert 20 grams of ice at -10 degree C into steam at 110 degree C?
Temp. change = Mass(g) x SH (J/g/°C) x °C ΔT.
Phase change = Mass x LH.
You have the SH of steam as 4.2J/g/°C...it's 2.01J/g/°C.
*..Ice at -10°C to 0°C = 20 x 2.1 x 10 = 0.420kJ.
*..Ice at 0°C to water at 0°C = 20 x 336 = 6.7kJ.
*..Water at 0°C to 100°C = 20 x 4.2 x 100°C = 8.4kJ
*..Water at 100°C to steam at 100°C = 20 x 2.3 = 46kJ
*..Steam at 100°C to 110°C = 20 x 2.01 x 10 = 0.402kJ
Total heat required (kJ) = 0.42 + 6.7 + 8.40 + 46. + 0.402
= 61.92kJ.
