Explanation:
total heat = Heat required to convert 2 kg of ice to 2 kg of water at 0 °C + Heat required to convert 2 kg of water at 0 °C to 2 kg of water at 20 °C.
Heat=mhfg+mCpΔT
Here, m ( mass of ice) = 2 kg
hfg (latent heat of fusion of ice) = 334 KJ
Cp of water (specific heat) = 4.187 KJ/Kg-K
ΔT(Temperature difference) = 20 °C
Therefore, Heat required = 2 x 334 + 2 x 4.187 x (20 - 0 )
Heat reqd= 835.48 KJ
Therefore, to melt 2 kg of ice 835.48 KJ of heat is required.
