A substance is in the solid from at `0^(@)C`. The amount of heat added to this substance and its temperature is plotted in the graph . The specific heat capacity of the solid substance is `0.5 "cal"//"g"^(@)C`.

Latest heat capacity in melting process is -

Options

A. `(350)/(3)"cal"//"g"`
B. `(175)/(3)"cal"//"g"`
C. `(400)/(3)"cal/g"`
D. Can't say

Answer

B

Explanation

`L= (Q)/(m) = (800 - 450)/(6) = (350)//(6) =(175)/(3)"cal"//"g"`
