Question:

A laboratory apparatus is used to maintain a horizontal slab of ice at 28?F so that specimens can be prepared on the surface of the ice and kept close to 32?F. If the ice is 4 in. by 1.5 in and the laboratory is kept at 60?F, find the cooling rate in watts that the apparatus must provide to the ice.GIVENA slab of ice in a laboratoryIce temperature (Ti) = 28?FIce dimensions: 4 in by 1.5 inAmbient temperature (T??) = 60?FASSUMPTIONSAir in the laboratory is stillEffects of sublimation are negligibleEffects of moisture in the air arenegligible
