Equation and Value List:
Phase Changes:
Q = m x HF   HF_H2O = 334 ^kJ/_kg
Q = m x HV   HV_H2O = 2260 ^kJ/_kg

Temperature Changes:
Q = m x ΔT x specific heat   ΔT = T_final - T_initial
s.h._ice = 2.095 ^kJ/_{kg ^oC}
s.h._water = 4.19 ^kJ/_{kg ^oC}
s.h._steam = 2.0267 ^kJ/_{kg ^oC}

Q Total (for multi-step problems):
Q_total = Q₁ + Q₂ + ...
