    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    It takes 80 calories to melt 1 gram of ice. If 1 g of ice (at 0 degrees Celsius) is given 80 calories, it will melt and the final temperature of the water will be 0. Freezing water at 0 degrees Celsius: It also takes 80 calories to freeze 1 gram of water.
