Heat_1: Get the ice to 0 degrees
Convert 7 kg to grams
7 kg [1000 grams / 1 kg] = 7000 grams
Heat needed to get the the ice from - 9 to 0
deltat = 0 - -9 = 9 degrees
m = 7000 grams
c = 2.1 joules/gram
Heat_1 = m*c*deltat
Heat_1 = 7000 * 2.1 * 9
Heat_1 = 132,300 joules
Heat_2: Melt the ice.
There is no temperature change. The formula is 333 j/gram
Formula: H = mass * constant
H = 7000 g * 333 J / gram
H = 2331000 joules
Heat_3: Total amount of Joules needed.
2331000 + 132300 = 2 463 300 joules
Convert to Megajoules
2 463 300 joules * 1 megajoule / 1000000 = 2.63 megajoules.
