  • question_answer
    Two substances A and B of equal mass m are heated at uniform rate of 6 cal s?1 under similar conditions. A graph between temperature and time is shown in figure. Ratio of heat absorbed \[{{H}_{A}}/{{H}_{B}}\] by them for complete fusion is

    A)            \[\frac{9}{4}\]

    B)            \[\frac{4}{9}\]

    C)            \[\frac{8}{5}\]

    D)            \[\frac{5}{8}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                       From given curve, Melting point for \[A=60{}^\circ C\] and melting point for \[B=20{}^\circ C\] Time taken by A for fusion \[=(6-2)=4\] minute Time taken by B for fusion \[=(6.5-4)=2.5\] minute Then \[\frac{{{H}_{A}}}{{{H}_{B}}}=\frac{6\times 4\times 60}{6\times 2.5\times 60}=\frac{8}{5}\].
