Given the latent heat of fusion (melting) and the latent heat of vaporisation for water are Δhs = 333.2 kJ/kg and Δhv = 2257 kJ/kg, respectively. Use these values to estimate the total energy required to melt 100 kg of ice at 0 °C and boil off 40 kg of water at 100 °C. a) 239,028 kJ b) 95,250 kJ c) 185,500 kJ d) 362,628 kJ e) 123,600 kJ

Answer:

C)185,500 KJ

Explanation:

Given that

Latent heat fusion = 333.23 KJ/kg

Latent heat vaporisation = 333.23 KJ/kg

Mass of ice = 100 kg

Mass of water = 40 kg

Mass of vapor=60 kg

Ice at 0°C ,first it will take latent heat of vaporisation and remain at constant temperature 0°C and it will convert in to water.After this water which at 0°C will take sensible heat and gets heat up to 100°C.After that at 100°C vapor will take heat as heat of  vaporisation .

Sensible heat for water Q

[tex]Q=mC_p\Delta T[/tex]

For water

[tex]C_p=4.178\ KJ/Kg.K[/tex]

Q=4.178 x 40 x 100 KJ

Q=16,712 KJ

So total heat

Total heat =100 x 333.23+16,712 + 60 x 2257 KJ

Total heat =185,455 KJ

Approx Total heat = 185,500 KJ

So the answer C is correct.
