How much thermal energy is required to change a $40 \ g$ ice cube from solid at $-10^{\circ} C$ to steam at $110^{\circ} C$ (in $kcal$)?
[Assume, latent heat of fusion for water $= 80 \ kcal/kg$, specific heat of water $= 1 \ kcal/kg^{\circ} C$, specific heat of ice $= 0.5 \ kcal/kg^{\circ} C$, specific heat of steam $= 0.48 \ kcal/kg^{\circ} C$, latent heat of vaporisation of water $= 540 \ kcal/kg$]

• A

• B
  $40.288$
• C
  $35.188$
• D
  $30.188$
