Thermal Properties of Matter · Calorimetry and change of state
10 kg of ice at C is added to 100 kg of water to lower its temperature from C. Consider no heat exchange to surroundings. The decrement to the temperature of water is C.
(specific heat of ice J/kg.C, specific heat of water J/kg.C, latent heat of fusion of ice J/kg)
(specific heat of ice J/kg.C, specific heat of water J/kg.C, latent heat of fusion of ice J/kg)
- (1)10

- (3)6.67
- (4)11.6
We corrected a printing error in the original paper
Source printed the unit as “J/Kg” (three times).
