A 2.00 g sample of a substance (molar mass = 100 g·mol⁻¹) is heated at constant pressure from \(-20\)°C (solid) to \(80\)°C (gas). The substance melts at \(-5\)°C and boils at \(60\)°C. Its specific heat capacities are: solid 0.50 J·g⁻¹·K⁻¹, liquid 0.80 J·g⁻¹·K⁻¹, gas 0.60 J·g⁻¹·K⁻¹. The enthalpy of fusion is 25 kJ·mol⁻¹ and the enthalpy of vaporisation is 40 kJ·mol⁻¹. Calculate the total energy required for the whole heating process. Give your answer in kJ to three significant figures.
