Answer:

16.1923 kj

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of ice = 30.1 g

Initial temperature = -250 °C

Final temperature = 15.0 °C

Energy required = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity of ice is 2.03 J/g.°C

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 15.0°C - (-250 °C)

ΔT = 265°C

Q = 30.1 g × 2.03 J/g.°C × 265°C

Q = 16192.3 J

J to kJ:

16192.3 J × 1 KJ /1000 j

16.1923 kj
