1kg of water contains more heat than 1kg of ice.
Enthalpy (i.e. heat) of water = Enthalpy of ice + latent heat
Latent heat is heat required to change the phase of the substance. In this case, latent heat is heat required to melt 1kg of ice at 0°C. Latent heat just changes the state/phase of the substance without changing it's temperature.
Hence, 1kg of water has more heat than 1kg of ice at 0°C
