IPS HOMEWORK PROBLEMS

STUDY THIS IMPORTANT VOCABULARY BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

Heat of Fusion: The heat energy required (must be added) to melt one gram of a solid at its
melting point. For ice (solid water) at 0 oC, the heat of fusion equals 334 J/g.

Heat of Solidification: The heat energy released as one gram of a liquid changes to a solid at
its freezing point. For water at 0oC, the heat of solidification equals 334 J/g.

Heat of Vaporization : The heat energy required to change one gram of a liquid to a gas at the
liquid’s boiling point and one atmosphere of pressure. For water at 100 oC, the heat of
vaporization equals 2260 J/g.

Heat of Condensation : The heat energy released when one gram of a gas condenses to a
liquid at the liquid’s boiling point. For steam (gaseous water) at 100 oC, the heat of
condensation equals 2260 J/g.

Evaporation: The process by which particles escape from the surface of a non-boiling liquid
and enter the gaseous state.

Specific heat (Cp): The amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a
substance by one degree Celsius. Different substances have different specific heats.
For liquid water, the value is 4.184 J/g oC.
For ice, the value is 2.09 J/g oC. For steam, the value is about 2.02 J/g oC.

CONVERSIONS: 4.184 J = 1 calorie 1000 calories = 1 Calorie

SHOW WORK AND SOLVE:

3. How many calories are required to vaporize 61.5 grams of water at 100.0 oC?

4. How many Joules are absorbed in order to raise the temperature of 100.0 grams of water
at 25.0 oC to 85.5 oC?

5. How many Joules are required to change 30.0 grams of water at 40.0 oC to steam at 100.0
o
C? Careful — more than one step is necessary here! Write out all the steps!

6. How many Calories are released when 57.60 grams of water at 41.0 0C are converted to
ice at -5.00 oC?
7. How much energy is released when you convert 115.0 grams of steam at 120.0 oC to ice
at -10.00 oC.

8. How many Joules are required to raise 95.00 grams of water at 70.0 oF to
212.0 oF? (Hint: you convert oF to oC first.)

9. Gold has a heat of fusion of 12.552 J/g. The melting point of gold is 1063.0 oC. How
many Joules does it take to melt 450.0 grams of gold at 1063.0 oC?

10. You put liquid water in the freezer. Sketch the curve that you would expect when you
plot temperature versus time. Show temperatures of +20.0 oC, 0.0 oC, and -10.0 oC..
Label the phase changes and where it is solid, liquid, or liquid & solid on the line.
