To calculate the total amount of heat given when 50 g of ice at `0°C` is converted to steam at `100°C`, we need to consider three main processes: melting the ice to water, heating the water to `100°C`, and converting the water to steam. ### Step 1: Calculate the heat required to melt the ice The latent heat of fusion (melting) of ice is approximately `80 cal/g`. - **Formula**: \[ Q_1 = m \times L_f ...
