A 50 g sample of a substance is heated from \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\) to \(120^{\circ}\text{C}\). Its specific heat capacities are: solid \(0.5\ \text{J g}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\), liquid \(0.8\ \text{J g}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\), gas \(0.6\ \text{J g}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\). The melting point is \(30^{\circ}\text{C}\) with a latent heat of fusion \(80\ \text{J g}^{-1}\); the boiling point is \(100^{\circ}\text{C}\) with a latent heat of vaporisation \(200\ \text{J g}^{-1}\). Calculate the total energy required to raise the sample from \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\) to \(120^{\circ}\text{C}\).
