I came across an equation used in one of the forums from a few years ago.
Found here: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/calculate-how-long-it-will-take-for-the-ice-to-melt.531908/
I am researching a similar topic into melting ice and using it as a cooling solution.
However when i came across this equation everything was done correctly but a figure stuck out.
Why is the value of water's "Lf = 3.35 × 105 J kg-1" when in all other areas of the internet it is valued at 334 j / g?
I want to use this method to solve my own issue with a container but which value is correct for this equation?
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Michael
