Question

A 4.22 kg silver ingot is taken from a furnace, where itstemperature is 747 degrees C, and placed on a very large block ofice at 0.00 degrees C. Assuming that all the heat given up by the silver is used tomelt the ice and that not all the ice melts, how much ice ismelted?

Explanation / Answer

Specific heat of silver C = 233 J / kg oC mass of silver m = 4.22 kg Initial temperature of silver t = 747 oC Heat lost when silver come from 747 oC to 0oC is Q = m C dt                                                                                  = 4.22*233* 747= _____J This heat is given to ice,So, ice is melted Let the mass of melted ice be M Them ML = Q             M = Q /(334.88*103 )                 = ____ kg
