The heat required to change the phase of a substance can be calculated by using the formula,
q = mCΔT where q is the heat needed, m is the mass of the substance, C is the specific heat capacity and ΔT is the change in temperature.
q = 7000 g (4.18 J/ g °C) (0°C - (-9°C))
q = 263340 J or .26334 MJ
Hope it's correct! ( If so rank as brainliest answer) :)
