Question 1 Report

Calculate the mass of ice that would melt when 2kg of copper is quickly transferred from boiling water to a block of ice without heat loss (specific heat capacity of copper = 400Jkg $^{1}$ k $^{- 1}$ , latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.3 x 10 $^{5}$ Jkg $^{- 1}$ )

\frac{8}{33}

\frac{3.3}{80}

\frac{80}{33}

\frac{3.3}{8}

Answer Details

mc $Δ θ$ = m $λ$ f

2 x 400 (100 - 0) = m(3.3 x 10 $^{5}$ )

m = $\frac{2 \times 400 \times 100}{3.3 \times 10^{5}} = \frac{8}{33}$
