4. After the sinking of RMS Titanic, US operated the International Ice patrol with the purpose of monitoring the presence and movements of icebergs in the Atlantic and Arctic oceans. Once, they observed a unique tabular iceberg in a form of a rectangle (250 km x 50 km x 300 m). How many years would it take to melt the iceberg solely by heat from the sun if the ice absorbs a mean of 98 J/m²-s, 12.5 hrs per day? Note: the exposed area for heating is 250 km x 50 km and the density is 920 kg/m³.

Calculate the energy (in kJ) required to heat 0.542 grams of water from -42.9 ℃ to -19.3 ℃.
A bomb calorimeter, or a constant volume calorimeter, is a device often used to determine the heat of combustion of fuels and the energy content of foods. In an experiment, a 0.7090 g sample of adipic acid (C6H1004) is burned completely in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter is surrounded by 1.201×10° g of water. During the combustion the temperature increases from 22.33 to 24.58 °C. The heat capacity of water is 4.184 J gloc!. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was determined in a previous experiment to be 799.0 J/°C. Assuming that no energy is lost to the surroundings, calculate the molar heat of combustion of adipic acid based on these data. CGH1004(s) + (13/2) O2(g) → 5 H,O(1) + 6 CO2(g) + Energy Molar Heat of Combustion = kJ/mol

You were walking along España Blvd. and you randomly picked up a piece of strange shiny rock that weighs 49.9 g. You immediately ran to the ChE lab in Roque Ruaño Bldg. and asked the lab supervisor if you could so some experiments on this strange object. You found that it requires 790 J to increase its temperature from 25 °C to 74.8 °C. What is its specific heat capacity in J/g°C? Round off your answers to the nearest thousandth's digit.

A student disolves 12.0 g of lithium chloride (LiCl)in 300. g of water in a well-insulated open cup. She then observes the temperature of the water rise from 20.0 °C to 27.5 °C over the course of 6.7 minutes. Use this data, and any information you need from the ALEKS Data resource, to answer the questions below about this reaction: LiCI(s) - Li (aq) + Cl (aq) You can make any reasonable assumptions about the physical properties of the solution. Be sure answers you calculate using measured data are rounded to the correct number of significant digits.

Duncan knows that it takes 36400 cal of energy to heat a pint of water from room temperature to boiling. However, Duncan has prepared ramen noodles so many times he does not need to measure the water carefully. If he happens to heat 0.750 pint of room-temperature water, how many kilojoules of heat energy will have been absorbed by the water at the moment it begins to boil?

A bomb calorimeter, or a constant volume calorimeter, is a device often used to determine the heat of combustion of fuels and the energy content of foods. In an experiment, a 0.3215 g sample of phenanthrene (C14H10) is burned completely in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter is surrounded by 1.162×10 g of water. During the combustion the temperature increases from 25.15 to 27.48 °C. The heat capacity of water is 4.184 J glc-!. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was determined in a previous experiment to be 769.3 J/°C. Assuming that no energy is lost to the surroundings, calculate the molar heat of combustion of phenanthrene based on these data. C14H10(s) + (33/2) O,(g) – → 5 H,O(1) + 14 CO2(g) + Energy Molar Heat of Combustion = kJ/mol
