A copper block of mass \(5.0\, kg\) is heated to a temperature of \(500^{\circ} C\) and is placed on a large ice block. What is the maximum amount of ice (ઇન \(kg\)) that can melt? [Specific heat of copper: \(0.39\, Jg ^{-1 \circ} C ^{-1}\) and latent heat of fusion of water : \(335 \,J g ^{-1}\) ]
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(2.9\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Heat given by block to get \(0\,^{\circ} C\) temperature
\(\Delta Q _{1}=5 \times\left(0.39 \times 10^{3}\right) \times(500-0)\)
\(=975 \times 10^{3} J\)
Heat absorbed by ice to melt \(m\) mass
\(\Delta Q _{2}= m \times\left(335 \times 10^{3}\right) J\)
\(\Delta Q _{1}=\Delta Q _{2}\)
\(m \times\left(335 \times 10^{3}\right)=975 \times 10^{3}\)
\(m =\frac{975}{335}=2.910\, kg\)
