Answer:

1600 cal

Explanation:

The formula

q=mΔ[tex]_{fus}[/tex][tex]H^{0}[/tex]

is used to calculate the heat required to melt a solid where q=amount of heat, m=mass and Δ[tex]_{fus}[/tex][tex]H^{0}[/tex] is the enthalphy of fusion

now we substitute, m=20g, Δ[tex]_{fus}[/tex][tex]H^{0}[/tex]=80cal/g

Therefore, q=20g x 80cal/g =1600 cal

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
