We must first know the heat of fusion of water, which is the required energy to melt a given quantity of ice. For water, this is 334 J/g. 334 Joules have to be applied to one gram of 32°F ice to melt it, so 334 Joules have to be taken out of one gram of 32°F water to freeze it.

10 pounds is 4,535.9237 grams, so (4,535.9237) * 334 gives us 1,514,998.52, the amount of energy in Joules that has to be removed from 10 pounds of water to freeze it.

The final answer is 1.51499852 MJ (megajoules)

How many Btu's need to be removed from lb of water to change degrees to degrees?

To change the temperature of water by one degree Fahrenheit, 1 Btu of heat must be added or removed from 1 pound of water.


How many Btu are required to change 600 pounds of water at 75 degrees F to steam at 212 degrees F?

1 BTU is required to raise 1lb of water 1 degree F in 1 hour. 212-75=137 degrees 600 lbs water x 137 degrees= 82,200 BTU's required to change 75 degree water to 212 degree water. To change 212 degree water to 212 degree steam it requires 970 btu's (latent heat of vaporization) per lb of water 970 btu x 600 lbs water = 582,000 btu Answer - 582,000 btu+ 82,200 btu = 664,200 btu's
