Question Number 75648 by Rio Michael last updated on 14/Dec/19

 A student seals 200g of ice−cold water in a glass vacuum  (thermos) flask and finds that it warms up by 3.5 K in one hour  SHC of water =2400 Jkg^(−1) K^(−1)   a) Calculate the average rate of heat flow in the flask in watts.  To check this result over a longer period,the student fills the flask with  equal amounts of ice and water all at 0°C, and leaves it for   4 hours. the specific latent heat(enthalpy) of fusion of ice is 0.33MJg^(−1)   b) How much ice would you expect to have melted at the end of the  four hours?
