Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

Heat needed to change 60g (0.06kg) of ice at 0\(^o\)C to water at 0\(^o\) 

 = 0.06 x 3.36 x 10\(^5\)J

= 0.2016 x 10\(^5\) J

Heat required to raise the temp. of 60g (0.06kg) of water from 0\(^o\)C to 80\(^o\)C

= 0.06 x 4.2 x 10\(^3\) x (80.0)J 

= 0.06 x 4.2 x 10\(^3\) x 80 

= 20.16 x 10\(^3\) 

= 0.2016 x 10\(^5\) 

Total heat needed = (0.2016 + 0.2016) 10\(^5\)J

= 0.4032 x 10\(^5\) J

= 40.32KJ
