The heat required (in cal) to change 10 g ice at 0oC to steam at 100oC is: [ Heat of fusion and heat of vaporization for H2O are 80cal/g and 540cal/g respectively. Specific heat of water is 1cal/g]

Solution
The heat required for the melting of ice is 10×80=800cal
The heat required for evaporation of water is 10×540=5400cal
The heat required for changing the temperature of water from 00Cto1000C is 10×1×100=1000cal
Total heat required for the entire process is 800+5400+1000=7200cal
