Answer :

Given:

The mass of ice is m = 50 g

The initial temperature of ice is

[tex]T_i=\text{ 0 }^{\circ}\text{ C}[/tex]

The final temperature of the water is

[tex]T_f=\text{ 35}^{\circ}C[/tex]

Explanation:

Heat is first required to convert ice to water at 0 degrees Celsius.

The heat required to convert ice to water at 0 degrees Celsius can be calculated by the formula

[tex]Q_1\text{ = mL}_f[/tex]

Here, the latent heat of fusion is

[tex]L_f=\text{ 80 cal/g}[/tex]

On substituting the values, the heat will be

[tex]\begin{gathered} Q_1=50\text{ }g\text{ }\times80\text{ cal/g} \\ =4000\text{ cal} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, the heat required to increase the temperature of water from 0 degrees Celsius to 35 degrees Celsius can be calculated by the formula

[tex]\begin{gathered} Q_2=mc(\Delta\text{ T}) \\ =mc(T_f-T_i) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Here, c is the specific heat of water at 1 cal/g deg C

On substituting the values, the heat required to increase the temperature will be

[tex]\begin{gathered} Q_2=50\text{ g}\times1\text{ cal/g }^{\circ}C\times(35-0) \\ =\text{ 1750 cal} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The total heat will be

[tex]\begin{gathered} Q=Q_1+Q_2 \\ =4000+1750 \\ =5750\text{ cal} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Final Answer:

The heat required to convert 50 grams of ice to water from 0 degrees Celsius to 35 degrees Celsius is 5750 cal
