The  amount of heat required to melt the iceberg at 9.58 * 10¹⁸ kJ.

What is the amount of heat required to melt an iceberg that has a volume of about 3.1 x 1013 m³?

The heat required to melt a unit mass of ice is known as the latent heat of fusion.

The latent heat of fusion of ice of 1 kg= 334 kJ of heat

Mass of iceberg = 3.1 x 10¹³ m³ * 917 kg = 2.8427 * 10¹⁶ kg

Amount of heat required = 2.8427 * 10¹⁶ * 334 = 9.58 * 10¹⁸ kJ.

Therefore, the amount of heat required to melt the iceberg at 9.58 * 10¹⁸ kJ.
