    226 kJ

    Explanation:

    We will need these constants for water:

    Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.108 kJ/kg•ºC Specific heat capacity of water = 4.186 kJ/kg•ºC Specific heat capacity of steam = 1.996 J/kg•ºC

    Latent heat of melting, ΔHf = 334 kJ/kg Latent heat of evaporation, ΔHvap = 2256 kJ/kg

    Calculations:

    72.3g = 0.0723kg

    1. Heating the ice from - 15ºC to 0ºC

    Q₁ = m*C*ΔT = 0.0723 kg * 2.108 kJ/kg.ºC * 15ºC = 2.286kJ

    2. Melting the ice at 0ºC

    L₂ = m * ΔHf = 0.0723g * 334 kJ/kg = 24.148kJ

    3. Heating the liquid water from 0ºC to 100ºC

    Q₃ = 0.0723g * 4.186 J/kg.ºC * 100ºC = 30.265kJ

    4. Evaporating the liquid at 100ºC

    L₄ = 72.3g * 2256 KJ/g = 163.109kJ

    5. Heating the steam from 100ºC to 145ºC

    Q₅ = 0.0723g * 1.996 * 45ºC = 6.494kJ

    Total = 2.286kJ + 24.148kJ + 30.265kJ + 163.109 kJ + 6.494 kJ = 226.302 kJ = 226 kJ
