    During freezing, energy is released by the mass of water without change in temperature. Such energy will also be required if the same mass of water has to be melted.

    Then,

    Number of moles = mass/molar mass = 253/18.02 = 14.04 moles

    Energy released = moles*molar enthalpy of fusion = 14.04*6.008 = 84.35 kJ
