Question

A piece of ice (heat capacity =2100Jkg1oC1 and latent heat =3.36×105Jkg1) of mass m grams is at 5oC at atmospheric pressure. It is given 420 J of heat so that the ice starts melting. Finally when the ice-water mixture is in equilibrium, it is found that 1 gm of ice has melted. Assuming there is no other heat exchange in the process, the value of m is

Heat = latent heat + Heat required to raise temp
Q=mL+mCpΔT
420=(m×2100×5+1×3.36×105)×103 where m is in gm.
m=8g

A 5 g piece of ice at 20C is put into 10 g of water at 30C. Assuming that heat is exchanged only between the ice and the water, find the final temperature of the mixture. Specific heat capacity of ice = 2100 J kg1C1, specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J kg1C1 and latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.36 × 105 J kg1.
