If 12.03 kJ of heat are required to melt 36.0 grams of water, what is the heat of fusion of water? 2.99 kJ/mol 6.02 kJ/mol 12.04 kJ/mol 60.20 kJ/mol @Somy @Abhisar
Hello !
Can u calculate the moles of water in 36 grams ?
no :( am bad at chem @Abhisar
Do u know the molar mass of water ?
18.02 @Abhisar
good !
@somy now am confused again
See it's simple, 12.03 kJ/mol required for 36 grams or 2 moles
Then for one mole how much heat is required ?
Define latent heat of fusion
so do i divide 12.03 by 36.0 @Somy @Abhisar
but it doesnt give me the answer i need
See the unit @Somy kJ/m = kJ per mole
mass= is in Kg so change it to Kg
so = 36/1000= 0.036 kg now u can use the formula
i got 0.299
probably @Abhisar im not having calculator atm
lol i think i confused everyone +_+ lets start it over
@somy i got the answer wrong :(
I think it should be B
how did u come up with it?

1 mole of H2O= 18
12.03/2 =
wait lol
@Abhisar now im confused isn't Q= 12.03 ?
but they are asking for Latent heat of fusion
wait a sec are they just indirectly asking for Q and by bringing up 'fusion' they are confusing us? @Abhisar
@veronica.montanez are you taking Cambridge system?
@Somy no
hmmm @Abhisar take over this - i don't really get what they are asking for coz for Latent heat of Fusion =number is real big

eat of fusion is the amount of heat energy required to change the state of a substance from solid to liquid. Q=m*Delta f Delta f unit is KJ/mol 36 grams is 2 moles of water. Delta F= 12.04/2=6.02KJ per mole
