A steel alloy has a melting temperature = 1450C, its density = 7.87 g/cm2, specific heat=0.46 /gC,

A steel alloy has a melting temperature = 1450°C, its density = 7.87 g/cm2, specific heat=0.46 /gºC, and heat of fusion - 270 1/8 Assume specific heat has the same value for solid and molten metal. The pouring temperature for this steel is 1600°C, and the starting temperature = 25°C. Compute the unit energy for melting and pouring in J/
