Question

3.833 kJ of heat is required to convert a 36.8 g sample of ethyl
alcohol from the solid to liquid phase. What is the heat of
fusion of ethyl alcohol in J/g?

Answer 1

The heat of fusion of the given sample of the ethyl alcohol is 104.16 J/g.

The given parameters:

• heat required to convert 36.8 g sample of ethyl alcohol, Q  = 3.3833 kJ
• mass of the  ethyl alcohol, m = 36.8 g

The heat of fusion of the given sample of the ethyl alcohol converted from solid to liquid phase is calculated as follows;

$H_f = \frac{Q}{m} \\\\H_f = \frac{3.833 \times 10^3\ J}{36.8 \ g} \\\\H_f = 104.16 \ J/g$

Thus, the heat of fusion of the given sample of the ethyl alcohol is 104.16 J/g.
