"14,800 J"14,800 J

Explanation:

The idea here is that you're going to need enough heat to

  1. Heat "4.80 g"4.80 g of ice at -30.0^@"C"30.0C to ice at 0^@"C"0C
  2. Convert the sample from ice at 0^@"C"0C to liquid water at 0^@"C"0C, i.e. perform a solid -> liquid phase change
  3. Heat "4.80 g"4.80 g of liquid water at 0^@"C"0C to liquid water at 100^@"C"100C
  4. Convert the sample from liquid water at 100^@"C"100C to vapor at 100^@"C"100C, i.e. perform a liquid -> vapor phase change

The total heat needed to get the sample from ice at -30.0^@"C"30.0C to vapor at 100^@"C"100C will be the sum of the heat needed to ensure that every step in this series takes place.

q_"total" = sumq_"each step"qtotal=qeach step

Now, for each step, you will need to use

  1. The specific heat of ice
  2. The heat of fusion of water
  3. The specific heat of water
  4. The heat of vaporization of water

The two equations that you will use are

color(blue)(ul(color(black)(q = m * DeltaH_"fus/vap")))" " " "color(darkorange)((1))

This equation is used for phase changes, i.e. when the change in temperature is equal to zero. Here m is the mass of the sample and DeltaH_"fus/vap" is the heat of fusion.vaporization, depending on which phase change you're dealing with.

color(blue)(ul(color(black)(q = m * c_"ice/water" * DeltaT)))" " " "color(darkorange)((2))

This equation is used when you're heating the sample without performing a phase change. Here c is the specific heat of ice/water and DeltaT is the change in temperature

This means that, for each step, you will use

  1. Use equation color(darkorange)((2)) with c_"ice" and a change in temperature of DeltaT = 0^@"C" - (-30.0^@"C") = 30.0^@"C"
  2. Use equation color(darkorange)((1)) with DeltaH_"fus"
  3. Use equation color(darkorange)((2)) with c_"water" and a change in temperature of DeltaT = 100^@"C" - 0^@"C" = 100^@"C"
  4. Use equation color(darkorange)((1)) with DeltaH_"vap"

So, you can put all this together to get

q_"total" = overbrace(4.80 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"))) * "2.06 J" color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"^(-1)))) color(red)(cancel(color(black)(""^@"C"^(-1)))) * 30.0color(red)(cancel(color(black)(""^@"C"))))^(color(blue)("step 1")) + overbrace(4.80 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"))) * "334.16 J" color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"^(-1)))))^(color(blue)("step 2"))

color(white)(q_"total") + overbrace(4.80 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"))) * "4.184 J" color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"^(-1)))) color(red)(cancel(color(black)(""^@"C"^(-1)))) * 100.0color(red)(cancel(color(black)(""^@"C"))))^(color(blue)("step 3")) + overbrace(4.80 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"))) * "2259J" color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"^(-1)))))^(color(blue)("step 4"))

color(darkgreen)(ul(color(black)(q_"total" = "14,800 J")))

The answer is rounded to three sig figs.
