Specific heat capacity of ice, \(c_{\text{ice}}\)\(2.1\text{ J}/(\text{g}\cdot^\circ\text{C})\)
Specific heat capacity of water, \(c_{\text{water}}\)\(4.2\text{ J}/(\text{g}\cdot^\circ\text{C})\)
Specific heat capacity of steam, \(c_{\text{steam}}\)\(2.0\text{ J}/(\text{g}\cdot^\circ\text{C})\)
Enthalpy of fusion, \(\Delta H_{\text{fus}}\)\(330\text{ J/g}\)
Enthalpy of vaporization, \(\Delta H_{\text{vap}}\)\(2260\text{ J/g}\)

A student heats a \(10.0\text{ g}\) sample of solid water (\(\text{H}_2\text{O}\)) initially at \(-10.0\text{ }^\circ\text{C}\) until it is completely converted to steam at \(110.0\text{ }^\circ\text{C}\) at a constant pressure of \(1.0\text{ atm}\). Based on the thermodynamic data in the table above, what is the total quantity of thermal energy absorbed by the sample?
