b. melting the ice to become water
c. warming the resulting water
d. vaporizing the water to become steam
e. heating the steam
Question 2
Water at room temperature, 20C, is pumped into a reactor core where it is converted to steam at 200C. How much heat (in J) is transferred to each kilogram of water in this process? (csteam = 2 010 J/kgC; Lsteam = 2.26 103 J/g; 1 cal = 4.186 J.)
a. 3.35 105
b. 7.53 105
c. 2.67 106
d. 2.80 106
e. 3.01 106
