A ‘thermacole’ icebox is a cheap and efficient method for storing small quantities of cooked food in summer in particular. A cubical icebox of side 30 cm has a thickness of 5.0 cm. If 4.0 kg of ice is put in the box, estimate the amount of ice remaining after 6 h. The outside temperature is 45 °C, and coefficient of thermal conductivity of thermacole is 0.01 J s–1 m–1 K–1. [Heat of fusion of water = 335 × 103 J kg–1]
उत्तर १
Side of the given cubical ice box, s = 30 cm = 0.3 m
Thickness of the ice box, l = 5.0 cm = 0.05 m
Mass of ice kept in the ice box, m = 4 kg
Time gap, t = 6 h = 6 × 60 × 60 s
Outside temperature, T = 45°C
Coefficient of thermal conductivity of thermacole, K = 0.01 J s–1 m–1 K–1
Heat of fusion of water, L = 335 × 103 J kg–1
Let m’ be the total amount of ice that melts in 6 h.
The amount of heat lost by the food: `theta = (KA(T-0)t)/l`
Where
A = Surface area of the box = 6s2 = 6 × (0.3)2 = 0.54 m3
`theta = (0.01xx0.54xx(45)xx6xx60xx60)/0.05 = 104976 J`
But `theta = m'L`
`:. m' = theta/L`
`= 104976/(335xx10^3) = 0.313 kg`
Mass of ice left = 4 – 0.313 = 3.687 kg
Hence, the amount of ice remaining after 6 h is 3.687 kg.
उत्तर २
Each side of the cubical box (having 6 faces) is 30 cm = 0.30 m. Therefore, the total surface area’ of the icebox exposed to outside air is A = 6 x (0.30 m)2 = 0.54 m2. The thickness of the icebox is d = 5.0 cm = 0.05 m, time of exposure t = 6h = 6 x 3600 s and temperature difference T1 – T2 = 45°C – 0°C = 45°C.
∴Total heat entering the icebox in 6 h is given by
`Q = (KA(T1 - T2)t)/d`
`= (0.01 Js^(-1) m^(-1) C6(-1)xx0.54 m^2 xx 45 ^@C xx (6xx 3600 s))/"0.05m"`
`= 1.05 xx10^5 J`
Suppose a mass m of ice melts with this heat. Then Q = mL, where L is tatent heat of fusion of water thus
`1.05 xx 10^5 J = m(335xx10^3) "JKg"^(-1)`
or `m = (1.05 xx10^5 J)/(335 xx 10^3 J kg^(-1)) = 0.313 kg`
The initial mass of ice in the box is 4.0 kg. Therefore the ice remaining in the box after 6 h is = (4.0 - 0.313) kg
= 3.687 kg

= 3.687 kg

During summers in India, one of the common practice to keep cool is to make ice balls of crushed ice, dip it in flavoured sugar syrup and sip it. For this a stick is inserted into crushed ice and is squeezed in the palm to make it into the ball. Equivalently in winter, in those areas where it snows, people make snow balls and throw around. Explain the formation of ball out of crushed ice or snow in the light of P–T diagram of water.
