A student placed an ice cube on a table and observed it for five minutes. He noticed that the ice cube seemed to get smaller and was now surrounded by a small puddle of water. Explain what happened to the ice cube. Be sure to tell what caused the ice cube to change and how the puddle of water formed. When will the temperature of the ice cube stabilize?

Look at the potential energy diagram for a chemical reaction. which statement correctly describes the energy changes that occur in the forward reaction?

Consider a 1000 w iron whose base plate is made of 0.5 cm thick aluminum alloy 2024-t6 (ρ = 2770 kg/m3 and cp = 875 j/kg°c). the base plate has a surface area of 0.03 m2. initially, the iron is in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air at 22°c. assuming 90% of the heat generated in the resistance wires is transferred to the plate, determine the minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 200°c.
