the experiment was easy just melt ice in water in room temp until u reach a certian temp
but i find physics hard even the basics like this coz this is ment to be basic and i am not even a science student i am doing my BA in international relations and politics
thanx mate even tho the answer is wrong atleast the math is write so i can put that in my Conclusion but thanks a lot for the help
i still have to do the following experiment
combustion of fules
something on electricity
something on water turbines
something on solar energy
biodiesel...
lol i know it means 382865.6041 Jouels per kilogram
382865.6041 Jouels is a HELL load of jouels to melt ice in water at room temprature
382865.6041 Jouels is like wat ur house used in 2 weeks (just guessing)
=======================
my attempt at the final answer
0.01258kg x L (?) + 0.01258kg x 4200 Jkg-1K-1 x -11°K = 4235.2563 J
0.01258kg x L (?) = 4235.2563 J + 581.196 J
L (?) = (4235.2563 J + 581.196 J) / 0.01258kg
l (?) = 382865.6041
which i think is wrong coz i don't know wat i am doing
Homework Statement
need to work out the Specific Latent Heat of Fusion
i did the experiment and here are the results
Results:
Mass of calorimeter
Mcal 116.87g
Mass of H2O
MH2O = [Mcal + H2O] - Mcal 80.82g (197.69g)
Mass of Ice
Mice = [Mcal + Mice + H2O] - MH2O 12.58g (210.27g)
