specific heat capacity of ice = 2,000 J/kg-°C
latent heat of fusion of water = 334,000 J/kg
specific heat capacity of water = 4,000 J/kg-°C
-A 1 kg block of ice is removed from a freezer where its temperature was -10°C.The amount of heat absorbed by the ice as it warms to 0°C is 20,000 J.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To determine the amount of heat absorbed by the ice, we need to use the specific heat capacity of ice and the change in temperature:
Q = m*c*ΔT
Q = 1kg * 2,000 J/kg-°C * (0°C - (-10°C))
Q = 20,000 J
Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed by the ice as it warms to 0°C is 20,000 J, which matches the given value. So the answer is true.

Specific Heat Capacity of Ice = 2,000 J/kg-°C
