Suppose you add 100 grams of water at 60.0 degrees C to 100
gramsice at 0.00 degrees C. Some of the ice melts and cools thewarm
water to 0.00 degrees C. When the ice/water mixture hascome to a
uniform temperature of 0.00 degrees C, how much ice
hasmelted?

Respuesta :

Answer: The amount of ice melted is 50.3 grams.

Explanation:

To calculate the heat released by water, we use the equation:

[tex]q=mc\Delta T[/tex]

where,

q = heat released

m = mass of water = 100 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g.°C

[tex]\Delta T[/tex] = change in temperature = [tex]T_2-T_1=(60-100)^oC=-40^oC[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]q=100g\times 4.186J/g.^oC\times (-40)^oC\\\\q=-16744J[/tex]

The amount of heat released by water will be absorbed by ice.

So, amount of heat absorbed by ice = -q = -(-16744) J = 16744 J

To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:

[tex]\Delta H_{fusion}=\frac{q}{m}[/tex]

where,

[tex]q[/tex] = amount of heat absorbed = 16744 J

m = mass of ice melted = ?

[tex]\Delta H_{fusion}[/tex] = heat of fusion = 333 J/g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]333J/g=\frac{16744J}{m}\\\\m=\frac{16744J}{333J/g}=50.3g[/tex]

Hence, the amount of ice melted will be 50.3 g
