When ice transitions to water, the phase changes from solid to liquid. The energy or heat (q) necessary to convert a unit mass (m) of a substance from solid to liquid is called the enthalpy or heat of fusion (ΔHf). The relationship between q, m, and ΔHf is expressed as:

q = m * ΔHf

The ice mass is given as m = 65 g

The heat of fusion of water at 0°C is ΔHf = 334 J/g

Thus, we obtain: q = 65 g * 334 J/g = 21710 J

Next:

4.184 J equals 1 cal

meaning: 21710 J = 1 cal * 21710 J/4.184 J = 5188.8 cal

Therefore, the heat required is approximately 5188.8 cal, or about 5.2 Kcal.

What would the % p, on the npk ratio, be reported as for a 100g sample containing 7.5g of phosphorous?
alisha [2963]
To express concentration as a percentage, you simply divide the quantity of the substance by the total mixture mass, and then multiply by 100. For instance, if you want to calculate the percentage of P in the sample, the calculation is as follows:

%P = 7.5 g/100 g * 100 = 7.5%

A bell hanging at the top of a tower has 8,550 j of energy. If it has a mass of 20 kg find the height of the Bell
Alekssandra [3086]

43.62m

Clarification:

Given details:

Energy = 8550J

Mass of bell = 20kg

Unknown:

Height of the bell =?

Solution:

This bell possesses potential energy, which signifies energy at rest due to its positional context.

Potential energy = m g h

where m denotes the mass of the object

g indicates gravity's acceleration

and h stands for the height of the object

Here, we need to isolate for h.

g = 9.8m/s²

     Insert the variables;

        8550 = 20  x  9.8 x h

     As a result, h = 43.62m
