What is the amount of heat required (in calories) to convert 10 g of ice at `-10^(@)C` into steam at `100^(@)C`? Given that latent heat of vaporization of water is `"540 cal g"^(-1)`, latent heat of fusion of ice is `"80 cal g"^(-1)`, the specific heat capacity of water and ice are `"1 cal g"^(-1).^(@)C^(-1)` and `"0.5 cal g"^(-1).^(@)C^(-1)` respectively.

The correct Answer is:
To find the total amount of heat required to convert 10 g of ice at -10°C into steam at 100°C, we will break the process down into several steps: ### Step 1: Heating the Ice from -10°C to 0°C We need to calculate the heat required to raise the temperature of the ice from -10°C to 0°C. The formula for heat (Q) is given by: \[ Q_1 = m \cdot c \cdot \Delta T \] Where: - \( m = 10 \, \text{g} \) (mass of ice) - \( c = 0.5 \, \text{cal g}^{-1} \text{°C}^{-1} \) (specific heat capacity of ice) - \( \Delta T = 0 - (-10) = 10 \, \text{°C} \) (change in temperature) Calculating \( Q_1 \): \[ Q_1 = 10 \, \text{g} \cdot 0.5 \, \text{cal g}^{-1} \text{°C}^{-1} \cdot 10 \, \text{°C} \] \[ Q_1 = 10 \cdot 0.5 \cdot 10 = 50 \, \text{cal} \] ### Step 2: Melting the Ice at 0°C Next, we convert the ice at 0°C to water at 0°C using the latent heat of fusion: \[ Q_2 = m \cdot L_f \] Where: - \( L_f = 80 \, \text{cal g}^{-1} \) (latent heat of fusion) Calculating \( Q_2 \): \[ Q_2 = 10 \, \text{g} \cdot 80 \, \text{cal g}^{-1} \] \[ Q_2 = 800 \, \text{cal} \] ### Step 3: Heating the Water from 0°C to 100°C Now, we need to heat the water from 0°C to 100°C: \[ Q_3 = m \cdot c \cdot \Delta T \] Where: - \( c = 1 \, \text{cal g}^{-1} \text{°C}^{-1} \) (specific heat capacity of water) - \( \Delta T = 100 - 0 = 100 \, \text{°C} \) Calculating \( Q_3 \): \[ Q_3 = 10 \, \text{g} \cdot 1 \, \text{cal g}^{-1} \text{°C}^{-1} \cdot 100 \, \text{°C} \] \[ Q_3 = 1000 \, \text{cal} \] ### Step 4: Vaporizing the Water at 100°C Finally, we convert the water at 100°C to steam at 100°C using the latent heat of vaporization: \[ Q_4 = m \cdot L_v \] Where: - \( L_v = 540 \, \text{cal g}^{-1} \) (latent heat of vaporization) Calculating \( Q_4 \): \[ Q_4 = 10 \, \text{g} \cdot 540 \, \text{cal g}^{-1} \] \[ Q_4 = 5400 \, \text{cal} \] ### Step 5: Total Heat Required Now, we can find the total heat required by summing all the heat quantities calculated: \[ Q_{\text{total}} = Q_1 + Q_2 + Q_3 + Q_4 \] \[ Q_{\text{total}} = 50 \, \text{cal} + 800 \, \text{cal} + 1000 \, \text{cal} + 5400 \, \text{cal} \] \[ Q_{\text{total}} = 7250 \, \text{cal} \] Thus, the total amount of heat required to convert 10 g of ice at -10°C into steam at 100°C is **7250 calories**.
