using heat of fusion

Question

Calculate the amount of heat needed to melt 106.g of solid octane (C8H18) and bring it to a temperature of 118.8°C. Round your answer to 3 significant digits. Also, be sure your answer contains a unit symbol. 

Answer 1

You need to plug into the equation Q = mC_s(T_MP - T_i) + nΔH_F + mC_L(118.6 - T_MP)

You need some data:

The initial temperature (not given - without info, you can start at 25 degrees C)

The heat of fusion of octane (Usually in kJ/mole - convert to J/mole)

The specific heats of solid and liquid octane.

You need the molar mass of octane in g/moles
