Answer : The rate of heat transfer to the water is, 37.92 kJ/min
Explanation : Given,
Time = 10 min
Mass of water = 200 g
Latent heat of fusion of water = 334 J/g
Latent heat of vaporization of water = 2230 J/g
Now we have to calculate the rate of heat transfer to the water.
[tex]Q=\frac{m\times (L_v-L_f)}{t}[/tex]
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:
[tex]Q=\frac{200g\times (2230-334)J/g}{10min}[/tex]
[tex]Q=37920J/min=37.92kJ/min[/tex]
Thus, the rate of heat transfer to the water is, 37.92 kJ/min
