    Fusion Heat Ice
AI Thread Summary
To calculate the heat of fusion of ice, the experiment involves a brass calorimeter weighing 50 g with a specific heat of 0.09 cal/g-°C. The mass of ice is 20.45 g at 0°C, and the final temperature (TF) is 20°C, while the mass of water (mH2O) is 200 g at 30°C. The heat exchange between the ice and water must be analyzed to determine the heat absorbed by the ice as it melts. Utilizing the provided data and following the forum's guidelines for assistance can enhance understanding of the calculation process. Properly documenting attempts is essential for receiving help in the forum.

Calculate heat of fusion.?
find the heat of fusion of ice using the ffg. data obtained from an experiment:

wt. of brass calorimeter = 50 g
specific heat of brass calorimeter = 0.09 cal/g-°C
m of ice= 20.45 g at 0°C
TF= 20 °C
mH2O = 200 g at 30°C

I want to test a humidity sensor with one or more saturated salt solutions. The table salt that I have on hand contains one of two anticaking agents, calcium silicate or sodium aluminosilicate. Will the presence of either of these additives (or iodine for that matter) significantly affect the equilibrium humidity? I searched and all the how-to-do-it guides did not address this question. One research paper I found reported that at 1.5% w/w calcium silicate increased the deliquescent point by...
