The amount of heat released when 150 grams of ice at 0 degrees Celsius is converted into liquid water at 0 degrees Celsius is ____ J.

Directrix (directrix):

To convert 1 g of ice at 0 ºC to 1 g of water at 0 ºC, 334 J of heat must be absorbed by the water. 150 grams times 334 J per gram = ? J @jmays14

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

"Amount of heat released" doesn't sound right... the ice absorbs heat when changing phase to liquid.

@Directrix so it will be 50,100

Directrix (directrix):

That's what I think from the reading I did. Now, I can't say that I am certain that I interpreted what I read correctly but it made sense to me. :) 50,100

Okay what about this problem ____ J of heat is required to raise the temperature of 100. grams of water by 10. degrees Celsius

@Directrix

Directrix (directrix):

I don't know this out of my head. I'll have to read at that link above.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i got 10 but idk if thats correct

Directrix (directrix):

Did you see the image attached below at the site: http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/heat-units-d_664.html

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i see it but that still doesnt help me figure out the answer all its telling me is the definition

Directrix (directrix):

So, 4.184 J for 1 degree increase for 1 gram. For 1 gram to move 1 degree requires 4.184 J. 100 grams require 4.184 J times 10 (degrees up) times 100 (number of grams)=? What is the product of 4.184 * 10* 100. I think but am not certain that that's the number of needed Js.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4,184

Directrix (directrix):

4,184 Joules is the product of the numbers.
