Explanation / Answer

Q = heat change for conversion of ice at -12 oC to ice at 0 oC + heat change for
conversion of ice at 0oC to water at 0oC + heat change for conversion of water at 0oC to water at 100 oC +heat change for conversion of water at 100 oC to vapour at 100 oC+ heat change for conversion of vapour at 100 oC to vapour at 120 oC

Amount of heat absorbed , Q = mcdt + mL + mc'dt + mL' + mc"dt"
= m(cdt + L + c'dt' + L' + c"dt" )
Where
m = mass of water = 27.0 g
c” = Specific heat of steam = 2.11 J/g degree C
c' = Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g degree C
c = Specific heat of ice= 2.08 J/g degree C
L’ = Heat of Vaporization of water = 2260 J/g
L= Heat of fusion of ice = 334 J/g
dt’’ = 120-100 = 20oC
dt' = 100 -0 =100 oC
dt = 0-(-12)=12 oC
Plug the values we get Q = m(cdt + L + c'dt '+ L' + c"dt" )

Q= 83.14*10^3 J

Q= 83.14 kJ
