The term amphoteric describes a substance that can act as both an acid and a base.
In a closed system, heat should be conserved which means that the heat produced in the calorimeter is equal to the heat released by the combustion reaction. We calculate as follows:
Heat of the combustion reaction = mC(T2-T1)
= 1 (1.50) (41-21)
= 30 kJ
If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, the process is endothermic.
The process requires heat in order to proceed. If ice stays in a very cold place, it will not melt unless it's heated. If ice is placed outside where it melts on its own, it gets the heat from the surroundings.
This is what I got. Hope it helps :)
