A Substance Has a Melting Point of 20°C and a Heat

question 21

Multiple Choice

A substance has a melting point of 20°C and a heat of fusion of 3.9 x 10⁴ J/kg. The boiling point is 150°C and the heat of vaporization is 7.8 × 10⁴ J/kg at a pressure of 1.0 atm. The specific heats for the solid, liquid, and gaseous phases are 600 J/(kg∙K) , 1000 J/(kg∙K) , and 400 J/(kg∙K) , respectively. The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 3.80 kg of the substance from -6°C to 128°C at a pressure of 1.0 atm, is closest to

• A) 620 kJ.
• B) 470 kJ.
• C) 560 kJ.
• D) 210 kJ.
• E) 770 kJ.
