Question

Approximately how long should it take 9.4 kg of ice at 0?C to melt when it is placed in a carefully sealed Styrofoam ice chest of dimensions 25 cm × 35 cm × 55 cm whose walls are 1.6 cm thick? Assume that the conductivity of Styrofoam is double that of air and that the outside temperature is 36 ?C.

Step 1

Given dimensions: 25 cm x 35 cm x 55 cm Thickness of walls: 1.6 cm Surface area of one side = (25 cm x 35 cm) = 875 cm^2 Total surface area of all four sides = 4 x 875 cm^2 = 3500 cm^2 Show more…
