(1) Take a few pieces of ice in a glass beaker as shown in figure. (2) Insert the bulb of a thermometer in ice and measure its temperature. (3) Put the beaker on a stand and heat the ice using a burner. (4) Record the temperature using the thermometer after every minute. (5) As the ice is heated,it starts melting. Stir the mixture of ice and water. (6) Continue the heating even after ice starts melting. (7) Draw a graph of temperature versus time. The specific latent heat of fusion of ice is 80 cal // g .Explain this statement .

Calculate the amount of ice, which is sufficient to cool 45g of water, contained at 30^(@)C , such that the final temperature of the mixture is 10^(@)C . (Take specific latent heat of fusion of ice is 336" J "g^(-1) )

Define latent heat of fusion.

100 g of ice at -40^(@)C is supplied heat using a heater. The heater is switched on at time t = 0 and its power increases linearly for first 60 second and thereafter it becomes constant as shown in the graph. Heater is kept on for 5 minutes. The specific heat capacity for ice and water are known to be 2.1 (J)/(g^(@)C) and 4.2 (J)/(g^(@)C) respectively. The specific latent heat for fusion of ice is 336 J//g . The temperature of the ice sample kept on increasing till time t_(1) and then remained constant in the interval t_(1) lt t lt t_(2) . (i) Find t_(1) and t_(2) (ii) Find final temperature of the sample when the heater is switched off.
