Given:

Volume of water that is frozen into ice = 500 ml

To determine:

Amount of heat absorbed by ice before being fully melted

Step-by-step explanation:

Heat absorbed (Q) by ice is given as:

Q = m.Δ(Hfusion)

where:

m = mass of ice = Density of ice (water) * Volume of ice

= 1 g/ml * 500 ml = 500 g

ΔHfus = latent heat of fusion of water at 0C = 334 J/g

Q = 500 g * 334 J/g = 167,000 J

Ans: Heat absorbed by ice = 167 kJ
