How much heat is needed to melt 50.0g of ice at 0 degree celcius and then heat the water to 25 degree celcius?
Heating the water: mass*specificheat(25-0)
melting the ice: mass*heatfusionwater

To determine the amount of heat required, we need to consider the phase changes involved and the specific heat capacities of each substance.
1. Heat required to melt the ice:
The heat required to melt a substance without changing its temperature is given by the formula:
Q = m * ΔHf
where Q is the heat energy (in joules), m is the mass (in grams), and ΔHf is the heat of fusion (in joules/gram).
The heat of fusion of ice is 334 J/g, so to melt the ice at 0°C, the heat required is:
Q1 = 50.0 g * 334 J/g = 16,700 J
2. Heat required to raise the temperature of water to 25°C:
The heat required to raise the temperature of a substance is given by the formula:
Q = m * c * ΔT
where Q is the heat energy (in joules), m is the mass (in grams), c is the specific heat capacity (in joules/gram°C), and ΔT is the change in temperature (in °C).
The specific heat capacity of water is approximately 4.18 J/g°C, so to heat the water from 0°C to 25°C, the heat required is:
Q2 = 50.0 g * 4.18 J/g°C * 25°C = 5,225 J
Therefore, the total heat required to melt 50.0 g of ice at 0°C and then heat the water to 25°C is:
Total heat = Q1 + Q2 = 16,700 J + 5,225 J = 21,925 J
To determine the amount of heat required, we need to consider two steps:
1. The heat needed to melt the ice: The heat required to melt a substance can be calculated using the equation Q = m * ΔHf, where Q represents the heat required, m is the mass, and ΔHf is the heat of fusion. For ice, the heat of fusion is 334 J/g.
Q1 = m * ΔHf
Q1 = 50.0g * 334 J/g
2. The heat needed to raise the temperature of the water: The heat required to raise the temperature of a substance can be calculated using the equation Q = m * C * ΔT, where Q represents the heat required, m is the mass, C is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the temperature change. For water, the specific heat capacity is approximately 4.18 J/g°C.
Q2 = m * C * ΔT
ΔT = 25.0°C - 0.0°C
Now, we can calculate the total heat required:
Total Q = Q1 + Q2
Please substitute the values into the equations and calculate the total heat required.
