Calculate the heat change in calories for melting 65 g of ice at 0 ∘c.

When ice melts, the physicals state changes from solid to liquid. The energy or the heat required (q) required to change a unit mass (m) of a substance from solid to liquid is known as the enthalpy or heat of fusion (ΔHf). The variables; q, m and ΔHf are related as:

q = m * ΔHf

the mass of ice m = 65 g

the heat of fusion of water at 0C = ΔHf = 334 J/g

Therefore: q = 65 g * 334 J/g = 21710 J

Now:

4.184 J = 1 cal

which implies that: 21710 J = 1 cal * 21710 J/4.184 J = 5188.8 cal

Hence the heat required is 5188.8 cal or 5.2 Kcal (approx)

geosphere and hydrosphere.

this is because the geosphere has to do with geological events, while the hydrosphere controls all water on earth.
