A 10 kg block of ice has a temperature of -13°C. The pressure is one atmosphere. The block absorbs 4.10 106 J of heat. What is the final temperature of the liquid water?

Lets do it for one kg and say it absorbs 4.1 * 10^5 Joules to make the numbers easier.

first raise temp of ice from -13 to 0

Joules = 2000 * 13 = 26,000 = .26*10^5
so we have 4.1 - .26 = 3.84*10^5 Joules left and 1 kg ice at zero C

Now melt the ice
Joules = 3.34 10^5 Joules/kg heat of fusion
so we have (3.84 -3.34) = .5*10^5 Joules left and water at zero deg C

now heat the water
Joules = 5*10^4 = .4190*10^4 * (T-0)
T = 11.9 deg C

How much heat is required to bring the block of ice up to 0C?

How much heat is required to melt the ice at 0C?
If there is heat left over, then final temp can be calculated by

Heatleftover=10kg*specificheatwater(Tf-0)

solve for Tf.

The statement "the block absorbs 4.10106 J of heat" makes no sense to me.

To find the final temperature of the liquid water, we can use the formula for specific heat capacity.

1. First, let's calculate the heat absorbed by the ice using the equation:
Q = m * c * ΔT

where:
Q = heat absorbed (in joules)
m = mass of the ice block (in kilograms)
c = specific heat capacity of ice (in joules per kilogram per degree Celsius)
ΔT = change in temperature (in degrees Celsius)

The specific heat capacity of ice is approximately 2,093 J/kg°C.

Substituting the given values into the equation:
Q = 10 kg * 2,093 J/kg°C * (Tf - (-13°C))
Q = 20,930 J/kg°C * (Tf + 13°C)

Note that Tf is the final temperature of the liquid water.

2. Next, we'll equate the absorbed heat with the given value:
4.10 * 10^6 J = 20,930 J/kg°C * (Tf + 13°C)

3. Now, let's solve for Tf. Divide both sides of the equation by 20,930 J/kg°C:
(4.10 * 10^6 J) / 20,930 J/kg°C = Tf + 13°C

Simplify the left side:
Tf + 13°C = 196.21

4. Subtract 13°C from both sides of the equation to isolate Tf:
Tf = 196.21 - 13°C
Tf = 183.21°C

Therefore, the final temperature of the liquid water is approximately 183.21°C.
