    Calculate the amount of heat (in calories) required to convert 5g of ice at 0°C to steam   at 100°C:

    A) 3100                                      

    B) 3200

    C) 3600                                      

    D) 4200

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Total required heat (Q)= heat required to convert ice into water at\[0{}^\circ C\]\[({{Q}_{1}})+heat\]required to increase the temperature of water up to\[100{}^\circ C({{Q}_{2}})+heat\]required to convert water into steam at\[100{}^\circ C({{Q}_{3}})\]. \[\therefore \]  \[{{Q}_{1}}=mL\]                 \[=5\times 80=400\,cal\] \[{{Q}_{2}}=ms\Delta t\] \[=5\times 1\times (100-0)\] \[=500\,cal\] \[{{Q}_{3}}=mL=5\times 540\] \[=2700\,cal\] Thus,     \[Q=400+500+2700\] \[=3600\text{ }cal\]
