The heat required to change $1 \,kg$ of ice at $-8^{\circ} C$ into water at $20^{\circ} C$. at $1 \,atm$ of pressure, is closest to .............$\,kJ$ (Assume that ice has a specific heat capacity $2.1 \,kJ / kg / K$. water has a specific heat capacity $4.2 \,kJ / kg / K$, and latent heat of fusion of ice is $333 \,kJ / kg$ )

A

$414$

B

$424$

C

$434$

D

$444$

(KVPY-2021)

Solution

(C)

$-8^{\circ} C$ to $0^{\circ} C$ ice $\Rightarrow 1 \times 2.1 \times 8 \Rightarrow 16.8 \,kJ$

$0^{\circ} C$ ice to $0^{\circ} C$ water $\Rightarrow 1 \times 333 \Rightarrow 333 \,kJ$

$0^{\circ} C$ water to $20^{\circ} C$ water $\Rightarrow 1 \times 4.2 \times 20 \Rightarrow$ $84 \,kJ$

$\therefore$ total heat required

$\Rightarrow 333+84+16.8$

$\Rightarrow 433.8 \Rightarrow 434$
