Q: How many kilojoules are required to melt 32.0 g of ice at 0°C? (Heat of fusion for water = 334 J/g)

$$32.0 \times 334 \div 1000 = 10.7 kJ$$

Q: During condensation of steam at 100°C, how much energy is released when 50.0 g of steam condenses? (Heat of vaporization = 2260 J/g)

$$50.0 \times 2260 \div 1000 = 113 kJ$$

Q: A 175 g sample of steam at 100°C condenses, cools, and freezes to snow at 0°C. Calculate the total energy released. (Heat of vaporization = 2260 J/g, specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C, heat of fusion = 334 J/g)

$$175 \times 2260 \div 1000 + 175 \times 100 \times 4.184 \div 1000 + 175 \times 334 \div 1000 = 528 kJ$$

Q: Which equation would you use to calculate the energy required to vaporize a given mass of water?

$$\text{Heat} = \text{mass} \times \text{heat of vaporization}$$
