Heat of Fusion of Ice Question? Have to calcule the amount of energy? Details inside?

Question

Calculate the total amount of energy when 5.0 grams of ice is heated from -10 degrees celcius to 10 degrees. The theoretical heat of fusion of ice is 6.01 kJ/mol

Please help! Thank you so much

Answer 1

Not enough data,

You need the heat-capacity of ice to calculate the amount of energy needed to heat it from -10 to 0. Usually, the heat-capacity is measured in J/K/Kg (Joules per Degree Kelvin per Kilogram)

After that you need the amount of energy that is needed to melt the ice, the temperature remains 0 at this stage (is this the heat of fusion? I'm not familiar with the term).

At last you need the heat-capacity of water to calculate the energy needed to warm water from 0 to 10 degrees.

Add them all up and your done.
