What is the name of heat energy that changes ice into water and water into steam?
Latent heat is the measurement of energy needed to change the state of a substance at its melting point or boiling point. The latent heat of fusion of water is the amount of energy needed to change a fixed amount of water from a solid to liquid at 0 degrees C. this works out to be more than 800KJ of heat energy. The latent heat of vaporization of water is the amount of energy needed to change a fixed amount of water from a liquid to a gas at 100 degrees C. this is more than 1200KJ of heat needed to be absorbed.
How do you define 1calorie?
The large calorie, kilogram calorie, dietary calorie or food calorie approximates the energy needed to increase the temperature of 1 kilogram of water by 1 °C.
How much energy is needed to raise the temperature of 2.0 g of water 5.0 degrees C?
The needed energy is 10 calories.
What measurement is not needed to calculate the kenetic energy?
Kinetic energy = 0.5 x mass x velocity2 So you just need mass of the object and its velocity.
Why don't thermometers read down to -300 degrees Celsius?
Well, first of all, absolute zero, the point at which there is no thermal energy is at -273 degrees Celsius, so nothing could ever get to -300 C. Also, the mercury in the thermometer would freeze long before absolute zero, and it is unlikely that a standard thermometer would ever be used below its minimum measurement. If temperature measurement was needed below the minimum measurement of a thermometer, specialized scientific thermometers are available.
How much water can be heated up by 1 degree with 1 calorie of energy?
The definition of a calorie is that, it's the energy needed to increase the temperature of 1 kilogram of water by 1 °C.
How much heat energy is needed to raise the temperature of a 055kg sample of aluminum from 22.4 degrees celsius to 94.6 degrees celsius?
mmmm enthalpy
How much energy is needed to raise the temperature 2.0 g of water 5 at degrees Celsius?
42 J
Is less energy needed for objects with high specific heat capacity?
More specific heat means you need more heat energy to, for example, raise one kilogram of a substance by one degree centigrade.
How much energy is needed to increase the temperature of 1kg of water by 10c?
The specific heat capacity of a material is the energy required to raise one kilogram (kg) of the material by one degree Celsius (°C). The specific heat capacity of water is 4,200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C).
What is the difference between nuclear force and binding energy?
The nuclear force is what binds the nucleons, which are protons and neutrons, together in the nucleus of an atom. The binding energy is the amount of energy needed to break the atom apart. The one is a force, and the other is a measurement.
How much heat energy would be needed to heat 1 KG of copper by 2 degrees?
O.385x1x2=0.77 Answer: 0.77
