Four liquids are at their freezing temperature. Heat isnow removed from each of the liquids until it becomes completely solidified. The amount of heat that must be removed,Q, and the mass, m, of each of the liquids are as follows: liquid A, Q = 33,500 J, m = 0.100 kg; liquid B, Q = 166,000 J,m = 0.500 kg; liquid C, Q = 31,500 J, m = 0.250 kg; liquid D,Q = 5400 J, m = 0.0500 kg. Rank these liquids in order of increasing latent heat of fusion. Indicate ties where appropriate.
Heat is added to 1 kg of water such that the temperature increases by 5 K. The specific heat capacity of water is 4, 180 J/(kg.K). The specific heat capacity of iron is 450 J/(kg.K). If the same amount of heat is added to 5 kg of iron, how much will the temperature increase? O 7.28 K O 12.28 K O 10.28 K O 9.28 K
A ceramic container used for melting metals (called a crucible) contains 1.30 kg of a molten metal. The liquid metal cools until it reaches its melting point of 1,749°C. A scientist then measures that 2.99 ✕ 104 J of heat is transferred out of the metal before it completely solidifies. What is the latent heat of fusion of this metal, in J/g? (Be careful with units!)
