Document Summary
Homework 3 (due on friday, september 23, 2016) ocs1005, section 1&2. Last name: mitchell first name: jessica email: jmitc98@lsu. edu. We know that the specific heat of water c = 1 calorie/g/ oc. For water, the latent heat of evaporation is 540 calories per gram, and latent heat of melting (or freezing) is. 1 gram raised 1 degree celsius is equal to 1 calorie. A change of 10 degrees celsius for 1 gram is 10 calories. Use sensible heat since we aren"t changing states only temperature. Specific heat of water is 1 calorie/ gram/ 1 degree celsius. So 10 grams raised by 5 degrees= 5x10= 50 calories. Use latent heat since we are changing states of matter: solid to liquid. 3 grams ice x 80 calories= 240 calories. Use latent heat since we are changing states of matter: liquid to gas.
