1. What is the energy needed to raise the temperature of 20kg of water from 18oC to 40oC?

Specific heat capacity of water is 4180JKg-1K-1.

2. What is the energy released when 10kg water at 0oC freezes into ice the same temperature.
Specific latent heat of fusion of ice is 3.36x105JKg-1.
= 3.36
3. In an experiment, 15Kg of ice at 0oC is mixed with 20Kg of water at 90oC. What is the final
temperature reached by the mixture? Use the required data from the previous problems.
15 kg ice at 0oC

20 kg water at 90oC

Heat gain = mL =
15 x 3.36 x 105 = 5040000

Heat loss = mc

15 kg water at 0oC

20 x 4180 (90-x)
Heat gain = mc
15 x 4180 (x-0)

=
Water mixture at (unknown temp) x oC
(Containing 15kg of ice transformed into
water plus 20kg water)
Total heat gain = Heat loss
