What mass of steam at 100°C must be mixed with 490 g of ice at its melting point, in a thermally insulated container, to produce liquid water at 89.0°C? The specific heat of water is 4186 J/kg·K. The latent heat of fusion is 333 kJ/kg, and the latent heat of vaporization is 2256 kJ/kg.

the mass of steam at 100°C must be mixed is 150 g

Explanation:

given information:

ice's mass, = 490 g = 0.49 kg

steam temperature, T = 100°C

liquid water temperature, T = 89.0°C

specific heat of water, = 4186 J/kg.K = 4.186 kJ/kg.K

latent heat of fusion, = 333 kJ/kg

latent heat of vaporization, = 2256 kJ/kg

first, we calculate the heat of melted ice to water

Q₁ =

where

Q = heat

= mass of the ice

 = latent heat of fusion

thus,

Q₁ =

    = 0.49 x 333

    = 163.17 kJ

then, the heat needed to increase the temperature of water to 89.0°C

Q₂ = (89 - 0), the temperature of ice is 0°C

= specific heat of water

so,

Q₂ = (89 - 0)

     = 0.49 x 4.186 x 89

     = 182.55 kJ

so, the heat absorbed by the ice is

Q = Q₁ + Q₂

   = 163.17 + 182.55

   = 345.72 kJ

the temperature of the steam is 100°C, so the mass of the steam is

Q =  +   (100 - 89)

Q = (  +   (11))

= Q/ [  +   (11)]

      = 345.72/ [2256 + (4.186 x 11)]

      = 0.15 kg

      = 150 g

bacteria that live on the ocean floor are sustained by phytoplankton. phytoplankton, microscopic marine photosynthetic organisms, have a vastly significant role to play not only in the marine food web of which they’re part of, but also on a more global scale. despite their infinitely small size in comparison to other marine organisms, these tiny creatures occupy an immensely important ecological niche: they are the foundation of the marine food web, and as primary producers, play key roles in supporting all other organisms in the marine environment, as well as in the regulation of the earth’s climate through the sequestration of carbon, oxygen production, and other related processes. phytoplankton account for roughly half of all global primary productivity; therefore, their significance extends far beyond the marine environment alone. there is an intriguing sense of irony in the realization that these tiny living beings that often live out their existence unnoticed and undetected by the rest of the world, have such a far-reaching impact on the lives of virtually all other living organisms on the planet, particularly on those in the marine environment. the world that we have become accustomed to has been and is continuously shaped by the workings of these miniscule yet vital “plants of the sea”.
