High-altitude mountain climbers do not eat snow, but always melt it first with a stove. To see why, calculate the energy absorbed from a climber's body under the following conditions. The specific heat of ice is 2100 J/kg⋅C∘, the latent heat of fusion is 333 kJ/kg, the specific heat of water is 4186 J/kg⋅C∘
Calculate the energy absorbed from a climber's body if he melts 0.70 kg of -15∘C snow using a stove and drink the resulting 0.70 kg of water at 2∘C, which his body has to warm to 37∘C.
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
To calculate the energy absorbed from a climber's body when melting snow and warming the resulting water, we need to consider the energy required for each step.
Melting the snow: The energy required to melt the snow is given by the latent heat of fusion. Energy = Mass * Latent heat of fusion
Mass of snow melted = 0.70 kg Latent heat of fusion = 333 kJ/kg = 333,000 J/kg
Energy absorbed from melting the snow = 0.70 kg * 333,000 J/kg = 233,100 J
Warming the water: The energy required to warm the water can be calculated using the specific heat of water. Energy = Mass * Specific heat * Change in temperature
Mass of water = 0.70 kg Specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg⋅C° Change in temperature = (37°C - 2°C) = 35°C
Energy absorbed from warming the water = 0.70 kg * 4186 J/kg⋅C° * 35°C = 105,350 J
Total energy absorbed from the climber's body = Energy from melting snow + Energy from warming water Total energy absorbed = 233,100 J + 105,350 J = 338,450 J
Therefore, the energy absorbed from the climber's body when melting 0.70 kg of -15°C snow and warming it to 37°C is approximately 338,450 J (to two significant figures).

Mountain climbers often brew tea by melting snow, which they heat over a stove. Our stove burns butane (C4H10), which has a heat of combustion of -2878 kJ/mol. The temperature of the snow is initially at -20 °C, and we need 80 °C water to brew tea. a. How much heat is needed to turn the snow into a cup (237 mL) of water hot enough to make a cup of tea? b. Calculate the mass of butane needed to...

The energy needed to convert 2 kg of ice at -10 °C to water at 10 °C will be { Constants Given: Specific Heat of Water = 4186 J/kg ºc, Specific Heat of Ice = 2100 J/kg ºc, and Latent Heat of Fusion = 3.33 x 105 J/kg. }
please answer all questions Temperature Change and Phase Change - Specific Heat and Latent Heat - From COLD ICE to Warm Water The quantitative relationship between heat transfer and temperature change is Q = mcAT, where Q is heat transfer, m is the mass of the substance, and AT is the change in temperature. The symbol c stands for specific heat which depends on the material and phase (for exmample, water and ice have different specific heat). The specific heat...
