6. The temperature above 1200°C cannot be measured accurately by a platinum resistance
thermometer because platinum begins to evaporate above 1200°C.
7. The copper bottom allows more heat to flow into the pan because the thermal conductivity of copper is much larger than that of steel. Therefore, it helps in cooking the food faster.
8. As each side of a cube increases by 0.01% on heating. This results in increased in the area of faces by 0.02% and the volume by 0.03%.

As this much heat is produced by combustion of mo = 10g of coal, hence heat of
combustion of coal =
10. From the definition of coefficient of linear expansion,
5.243 = 5.231[1 + 1.2 10-5 (T - 300)]
T = 191 + 300 = 491 K = 218°C
11. Molar Specific heat

12. Side of the given cubical ice box, s = 30 cm = 0.3 m
Thickness of the ice box, = 5.0 cm = 0.05 m Mass of ice kept in the ice box, m = 4 kg Time gap, t = 6 h
Outside temperature, T1= 45oC
Inside temperature, T2 = temperature of ice = 0oC
Coefficient of thermal conductivity of thermacole, K = 0.01 J s-1m-1K-1
Latent heat of melting of ice, Let m' be the total amount of ice that melts in 6 h.
5/7 Total amount of heat lost, in 6 hrs by the food(mathematical form of the equation comes from the defination of the thermal conductivity):
Where, A= Total surface area of the box = 6 × Surface area of each surface of the box=
But , from the defination of latent heat of melting of ice.
Mass of ice left = Mass of ice initially kept inside the box - Mass of ice melted in 6hrs = 4 - 0.313 = 3.687 kg Hence, the amount of ice remaining after 6 h is 3.687 kg.
13. Side of the given cubical ice box, s = 30 cm = 0.3m
Area of each surface of the box = s2 = (0.3)2 m3
Thickness of the icebox, = 5.0 cm = 0.05 m Mass of ice kept in the icebox, m = 4kg Time gap, t = 6 h = 6 60 60s Outside temperature, = 45°C Inside temperature, = 0℃
Coefficient of thermal conductivity of thermacole, K = 0.01 J s-1 m-1K-1
Heat of fusion of water, L = J kg-1
Let 'm' be the total amount of ice that melts in 6h. The amount of heat lost by the food, kept in the thermacole in 6 hrs(using the equation from defination of thermal conductivity):
Where, A = Total surface area of the box = 6 × area of each surface = 6 (0.3)2 = 0.54 m3
Now, if m' be the mass of melted ice, then
Mass of ice left = 4 - 0.313 = 3.687 kg
6/7 Hence, the amount of ice remaining after 6h is 3.687kg.
14. Calorimetry is a branch of physics that deals with the measurement of the quantity of heat being transferred from one substance to another. The principle of calorimetry follows the law of conservation of energy. According to the principle of calorimetry, if two chemically non-reactive substances maintained at different temperatures are brought in thermal contact so as to share heat, the hotter substance transfers heat to the colder substance and the heat exchange continues till the temperature of both the substances become same. In such a situation if there is no heat energy dissipated due to radiation loss etc., then, we have Total heat transferred from the hotter body = Total heat transferred to the colder body.
