Question 2: Heat (5 points)
A. Describe the following heat equations, and identify the indicated variables.

i. Q = mcΔT; identify c. (1 point)
ii. Q = mLvapor; identify Lvapor. (1 point)
iii. Q = mLfusion; identify Lfusion. (1 point)

Respuesta :

Answer:

(i) specific heat

(ii) latent heat of vaporization

(iii) latent heat of fusion

Explanation:

i. Q = mcΔT; identify c.

Here, Q is heat, m is the mass, c is the specific heat and ΔT is the change in temperature.

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of substance of mass 1 kg by 1 degree C is known as the specific heat.  

ii. Q = mLvapor; identify Lvapor

Here, Q is the heat, m is the mass and L is the latent heat of vaporization.

The amount of heat required to convert the 1 kg liquid into 1 kg vapor at constant temperature.  

iii. Q = mLfusion; identify Lfusion

Here, Q is the heat, m is the mass and L is the latent heat of fusion.  

Here, Q is the heat, m is the mass and L is the latent heat of vaporization.

The amount of heat required to convert the 1 kg solid  into 1 kg liquid at constant temperature.  

(i) c is the molar heat capacity of the substance.

(ii) Lvapor is the latent heat of evaporation of the substance

(iii) Lfusion is the latent heat of fusion of the substance

All the 3 equations fall under Calorimetry.

In all the equation Q is the amount of heat required.

(i) First equation represents the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance of mass m.

                          Q = mcΔT

       here c is the molar heat capacity of the substance and ΔT is the chnage in temperature.

(ii) Second equation represents the amount of heat required to convert a substance of mass m from liquid phase to vapour phase.

                          Q = mLvapor

        here Lvapor is the latent heat of evaporation of the substance

during evaporation no change in temperature occurs.      

(iii) Third equation represents the amount of heat required to convert a substance of mass m from solid phase to liquid phase.

                          Q = mLfusion

        here Lfusion is the latent heat of fusion or melting of the substance

during fusion no change in temperature occurs.
