The air temperature in a sealed, insulated box.. 20°C An ice cube at O'C is
placed in the box where it slowly melts. How and why does the melting of the ice
affect the air temperature in the box?
Melting is endothermic so the air temperature increases
Melting is exothermic, so the air temperature decreases
Melting is endothermic, so the air temperature decreases
Melting is exothermic, so the air temperature increases
Answer:
Melting is endothermic, so the air temperature decreases.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given statement, it is possible to infer that the ice is melt because energy is applied to the ice and thereafter its temperature increases; this is possible because the joined particles of a solid substance need energy to undergo such a separation that they become more far away to each other and therefore transcend to the liquid phase due to the new molecules arrangement. Thus, the answer is Melting is endothermic, so the air temperature decreases because as the ice heats up, the air cools down as it gives it energy to the ice.
