Let's knock this out.

  1. Calculate the heat required to melt 10 g10 \text{ g} of ice at 0∘C0^\circ\text{C} to water at 0∘C0^\circ\text{C}.

    The formula for heat absorbed during a phase change (melting) is Q1=mLfQ_1 = mL_f.
    Given:

    • Mass (mm) = 10 g10 \text{ g}
    • Latent heat of fusion (LfL_f) = 336 J/g336 \text{ J/g}
    Q1=(10 g)×(336 J/g)Q_1 = (10 \text{ g}) \times (336 \text{ J/g}) Q1=3360 JQ_1 = 3360 \text{ J}
  2. Calculate the heat required to raise the temperature of 10 g10 \text{ g} of water from 0∘C0^\circ\text{C} to 10∘C10^\circ\text{C}.

    The formula for heat absorbed during a temperature change is Q2=mcwΔTQ_2 = mc_w\Delta T.
    Given:

    • Mass (mm) = 10 g10 \text{ g}
    • Specific heat capacity of water (cwc_w) = 4.2 J/g K4.2 \text{ J/g K} (or J/g ∘C\text{J/g }^\circ\text{C})
    • Change in temperature (ΔT\Delta T) = 10∘C−0∘C=10∘C10^\circ\text{C} - 0^\circ\text{C} = 10^\circ\text{C}
    Q2=(10 g)×(4.2 J/g ∘C)×(10∘C)Q_2 = (10 \text{ g}) \times (4.2 \text{ J/g }^\circ\text{C}) \times (10 ^\circ\text{C}) Q2=420 JQ_2 = 420 \text{ J}
  3. Calculate the total heat required.

    The total heat (QtotalQ_{total}) is the sum of the heat required for melting and the heat required for temperature increase.

    Qtotal=Q1+Q2Q_{total} = Q_1 + Q_2 Qtotal=3360 J+420 JQ_{total} = 3360 \text{ J} + 420 \text{ J} Qtotal=3780 JQ_{total} = 3780 \text{ J}

    The correct option is C.

    C. 3780 J\boxed{\text{C. } 3780 \text{ J}}
