Calculate the total amount of heat energy required to convert 100 g of ice at −10℃ completely into water at 100℃. Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.1 J g-1 K-1, specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J g-1K-1, specific latent heat of ice = 336 J g-1.

Explain the role of latent heat in the change of state of a substance.


A thermally insulated pot has 150 g ice at temperature 0°C. How much steam of 100°C has to be mixed to it, so that water of temperature 50°C will be obtained? (Given : latent heat of melting of ice = 80 cal/g, latent heat of vaporization of water = 540 cal/g, specific heat of water = 1 cal/g °C)

State two advantages of the high specific latent heat capacity of steam, which is about 226 × 104 J/kg?


State the main precautions to be taken in finding the latent heat of steam.


Calculate the total amount of heat required to convert 100g ice at 0°C to steam at 100°C. 
(Specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 J/g, specific latent heat of vaporization of steam = 2260 J/g, specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g°C).


Steam at 100°C is passed over 1000 g of ice at 0°C. After some time, 600 g of ice at 0°C is left and 450 g of water at 0°C is formed. Calculate the specific latent heat of vaporization of steam (Given: specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg°C, specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336,000 J/kg.)


1 kg of water is contained in a 1.25 kW kettle. Assuming specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g °C and specific latent heat of vaporization = 2260 J/g, calculate:
(i) the time taken for the temperature of water to rise from 25°C to its boiling point,
(ii) the mass of water which evaporates per minute from the boiling water.
