This problem is crushing my hopes and dreams of everfinishing this assignment. HOPEFULLY SOMEONE CAN HELPME! A certain quantity of ice at 0 degrees celsius melts intowater at 0 degrees celsius and in so doing gains 1.00 kg ofmass. What was its initial mass?

Explanation / Answer

Energy required to melt 1 kg of ice = 80 Cal/g * 4.19 J/ Cal / .001 kg = 3.35 * 10E5 J / kg Energy required to create 1 kg of mass E = 1 * c2 =9 * 10E16 J So the mass of ice that was melted M = 9 * 10E16 / 3.35 * 10E5 = 2.69 * 10E11 kg(this mass absorbed the energy required to create 1 kg ofmass)
