The quantity of heat energy required to melt completely 1 kg of ice at – 30oC is
[latent heat of fusion = 3.5 x 10 5Jkg -1, specific heat capacity of ice = 2.1×10 3Jkg -1K -1]
- 4.13x10 6J
-
4.13x10 5J
- 3.56x10 4J
- 3.56x10 2J
The correct answer is: B
Explanation
Q = mL + mcθ = 1 x 3.5 x 10 5 + 1 x 2.1 x 10 3 x 30There is an explanation video available .
