Calculate the energy required to melt 21 g of ice at 0 oC. The molar heat of fusion for ice is 6.02 kJ/mol.

We are given:

Mass of ice = 21 grams

The ice is already at 0°c, the temperature at which it melts to form water

Molar heat of fusion of Ice = 6.02 kJ/mol

Finding the energy required:

Number of moles of Ice:

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Number of moles = given mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 21 / 18 = 7/6 moles

Energy required to melt the given amount of ice:

Energy = number of moles * molar heat of fusion

Energy = (7/6) * (6.02)

Energy = 7.02 kJ OR 7020 joules

the number of protons in the nucleus of a given element. has slight luster and conducts electricity at high temperatures like metal.but like a nonmetal,boron is brittle and does not conduct electricity well at low temperatures. in graphite, carbon is a soft,brittle solid.it is reflective,ductile,or malleable.
