One kilogram of ice at -10^@ C is heated at a constant rate until the whole of it vaporises. How much heat is required ? Specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 xx 10^3 J kg^(-1) , specific latent heat of steam = 2268 xx 10^3 J kg^(-1) , specific heat capacity of ice = 2.1 xx 10^3 J kg^(-1) K^(-1) , specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 xx 10^3 J kg^(-1) K^(-1) .

An ice box used for keeping eatables cool has a total wall area of 1m^2 and a wall thichness of 5.0 cm. The thermal cunductivity of the ice box is K=0.01 J//m^@C . It is filled with large amount of ice at 0^@C along with eatables on a dfay when the temperature is 30^@C The latent heat of fusion of ice is 334xx10^3 J//kg . The amount of ice melted in one day is ( 1 day =86,000s )

A 2 kg copper block is heated to 500^@C and then it is placed on a large block of ice at 0^@C . If the specific heat capacity of copper is 400 "J/kg/"^@C and latent heat of fusion of water is 3.5xx 10^5 J/kg. The amount of ice that can melt is :

How should 1 kg of water at 50^(@)C be divided in two parts such that if one part is turned into ice at 0^(@)C . It would release sufficient amount of heat to vapourize the other part. Given that latent heat of fusion of ice is 3.36xx10^(5) J//Kg . Latent heat of vapurization of water is 22.5xx10^(5) J//kg and specific heat of water is 4200 J//kg K .
