You'll need 10 g. of fusion is the needed to melt a certain amount of substance. In your case you need 334 J of energy to melt 1 g of ice. If you can supply 3.34 kJ of energy you have: Q=mLf
where: Q is the heat you can supply, in this case 3.34 kJ; m is the mass of the substance, our unknown; Lf
is the latent heat of fusion of water, 334 J/g.
Rearranging you have: m=(QLf)=3.34â‹…103334=10g
Remember Latent Heat is the energy your substance needs to change its phase (solid -> liquid) and is not used to increase its temperature but to change the "connections" between the particles of the substance making it change from a solid (rigid connections) to a liquid (loose connections).
