What quantity of heat is required to change 20g of ice at -25°c to steam at 120°c

5289 joules

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since, Mass of ice = 20 g

C is not provided (Recall that the specific heat capacity of ice is 2.010J/g°C)

Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

(120°C - (-25°C) =

120°C + 25°C = 145°C

Thus, Q = 20g x 2.010J/g°C x 145°C

Q= 5829J

Thus, 5829Joules of heat energy is required to heat ice
