A 0.400 kg sample is placed in a cooling apparatus that removes energy as heat at a constant rate. Figure 18-32 gives the temperature T of the sample versus time t; the horizontal scale is set by ts=80.0 min. The sample freezes during the energy removal. The specific heat of the sample in its initial liquid phase is 300 J/kgK . (a) What is the sample鈥檚 heat of fusion and (b) What is its specific heat in the frozen phase?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The sample鈥檚 heat of fusion is 68 kJ/kg

Significance of specific heat

The specific heat capacity of water is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of a unit mass of water by one degree.

We can use the concept of specific heat of the water and find the energy

transferred during this time. We can use the expression of the power consumed by the system and then use the expression of the heat of fusion and the specific heat of the sample in the frozen phase.

Formulae:

The heat energy required by a body, Q=mcT 鈥(颈)

Here, m is mass, c is specific heat capacity, Tis change in temperature, Q is required heat energy.

The heat energy released or absorbed by the body, Q=LFm 鈥(颈颈)

Here, L is specific latent heat of fusion.

The power exerted through the heat by a body, P=Qt 鈥(颈颈颈)

Here, P is the power, Q is required heat energy, t is the time.

(a) Determining the sample’s heat of fusion

According to the figure, the temperature decreases from Ti=300Cto Tf=270Cwithin time, t=40.0min.

The energy transferred during this time using equation (i) is given by:

Q=3000J/kg.C0.40kg270C-300C=36000J

The transformation rate of the heat can be given using equation (ii) as:

P=36000J40min=900Jmin=900J60s=15W

During next t=30.0min, the heat transferred by the body using equation (iii) is given as:

Q=900Jmin30min=27000J

The phase changes from liquid to the solid. Then, the heat of transformation involved in this phase change is called heat of fusion. The specific latent heat of fusion using equation (ii) can be given as:

LF=Qm=27000J0.40kg=67500J/kg=68kJ/kg

Hence, the value of the specific heat of fusion is 68kJ/kg.

04

(b) Determining the specific heat of the sample in the frozen phase

During next t=20.0min, the sample is solid and change of temperature is T=30C. The expression for the specific heat of the sample using equation (i) is given as:

c=QmT=27000J0.40kg30C=2250Jkg.C2.3kJkg.C

Hence, the value of the specific heat is 2.3kJkg.C
