Calculate the amount of heat absorbed when a 15.5 g ice cube melts (at 0 °C). (The heat of fusion of water at its melting point is ΔHfus = 6.02 kJ/mol).
Added by Natasha R.
Step 1
02 kJ/mol To convert kJ/mol to J/g, we multiply by 1000 and divide by the molar mass of water (18 g/mol) Heat of fusion per gram = 6.02 kJ/mol * 1000 J/kJ / 18 g/mol = 334.4 J/g Show more…

Calculate the quantity of heat required to convert $60.1 \mathrm{g}$ of $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{s})$ at $0.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{g})$ at $100.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C} .$ The heat of fusion of ice at $0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ is $333 \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{g}$; the heat of vaporization of liquid water at $100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ is $2260 \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{g}$.
