How much heat is needed to melt 16.5kg of silver that is initially at 20*C?
Answer:We know that at 20*C the silver is cool solid. We first have to find the and raise the temperature of the silver to its melting point and finally e have to cause a solid-liquid phase transition at the melting point. We will also need the specific heat of silver and the het fusion and its melting point.
I hope it helps, Regards.
