Calculate the energy needed to heat 14.6 g ice at -10.0 °C to liquid water at 70.0 °C. The heat of vaporization of water = 2257 J/g, the heat of fusion of water = 334 J/g, the specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g·°C, and the specific heat capacity of ice = 2.06 J/g·°C.
Ti = -10.0
Tf = 70.0
here
Cs = 2.06 J/g.oC
Heat required to convert solid from -10.0 to 0.0
Q1 = m*Cs*(Tf-Ti)
= 14.6 g * 2.06 J/g.oC *(0-(-10)) oC
= 300.76 J
Lf = 334.0
Heat required to convert solid to liquid at 0.0
Q2 = m*Lf
= 14.6 g *334.0 J/g
= 4876.4 J
Cl = 4.18 J/g.oC
Heat required to convert liquid from 0.0 to 70.0
Q3 = m*Cl*(Tf-Ti)
= 14.6 g * 4.18 J/g.oC *(70-0) oC
= 4271.96 J
Total heat required = Q1 + Q2 + Q3
= 300.76J + 4876.4J + 4271.96 J
= 9449 J
= 9.45*10^3 J (Taking into account significant figure)
Answer: 9.45*10^3 J
