How much heat energy is required to melt 5 kg of ice ? Specific latent heat of ice = 336 J `g^(-1)`

Explanation

To find the heat energy required to melt 5 kg of ice, we can use the formula for calculating the heat required for a phase change, which is given by:

\[ Q = M \times L_f \]

where:
- \( Q \) is the heat energy required (in joules),
- \( M \) is the mass of the substance (in grams),
- \( L_f \) is the specific latent heat of fusion (in joules per gram).
