$Calculate the amount of heat required to convert 1.00 kg of ice at -10°C$
$at normal pressure to steam at 100°C.$

$The specific heat capacity of ice = 2100 J k g^{- 1} K^{- 1}$

$Latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.36 \times 10^{5} J k g^{- 1}$

$The specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J k g^{- 1} K^{- 1}$

$Latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.25 \times 10^{6} J k g - 1$
