How many grams of ice at 0°C and 101.3 kPa could be melted by the addition of 0.80 kJ of heat?

Pretty sure you just get the latent heat of fusion for water (333 j/g) then based on the formula of heat released/absorbed=latent heat x mass just plug everything in 0.8 kj=(333 j/g)(mass) solve for mass

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

you would definitely want to convert kj to joules first..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

i'm pretty sure the standard pressure here doesn't affect the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Where did the 333j/g come from?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

reference table, lol. look for the fusion/vaporization section

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh lmao

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

yup. at least 50% of chemistry is all just looking at the reference table..
