Room temperature, θ₁ = 25°C Melting point of Lead, θ₂ = 327.5°C Specific heat capacity of Lead, c = 130 J/kg Specific latent heat of fusion of Lead, L = 2.04 * 10⁴ J/kg Mass of lead, m = 2 kg. 1) Heat transferred from room temperature to melting point Formula for specific heat Q = mc(θ₂ - θ₁) Q = 2*130* (327.5 - 25) = 78650 J 2) Heat transferred to melt all of the solid at melting point Formula is for Latent heat, H = mL H = 2 * 2.04*10⁴ = 4.08 * 10⁴ J = 40800J Total heat transferred = stage 1 + stage 2 = 78650 + 40800 = 119450 Total heat transferred = 119450 J.
