250g of water at 10C needs to lose 1 cal/g/C or 2500 calories to drop temperature to zero.

The latent heat of fusion of water is 80 calories per gram at 0C so, the water needs to lose 20,000 calories to turn to ice at 0C

Finally, the ice needs to lose 0.316 cal/g/C or 790 calories to drop to -10C

The total heat released is then 2500 + 20,000 + 790 = 23,290 calories

Why does water expands at 4 degree celsius?

Water has curious thermal properties. It contracts (gets denser) as it cools down just like other materials. However, at 4 degrees Celsius, it reaches the maximum density of 1 and then starts expanding if it is further cooled. Ice formed at zero degree Celsius is actually less dense than water and floats on it.
