Question
In an insulated vessel, 250 g of ice at 0°C is added to 600 g of water at 18.0°C.
(a) What is the final temperature of the system?
(b) How much ice remains when the system reaches equilibrium?
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that

Mass of the ice is m1 = 250 g

Initial temperature of ice = 0°C

Mass of the water m2 = 600 g

Initial temperature of water is = 18°C

 

Constant material depended parameters are

Specific heat of water s = 1 cal/g/°C

Latent heat melting of ice  is L = 80 cal/g

Step 2

Part a:

The heat will supply to the ice by the water.

The heat released by the water in the conversion from  18°C to 0°C.

Q1 = m2sθQ1 = (600)(1)(18-0)Q1 = 10800 cal

Now the amount of Ice melt by absorbed heat 10800 cal from water is,

m = Q1Lm = 1080080m = 135 g

Now after this conversion 

Ice of temperature 0°C remains  in the system = (250-135) = 115 g   .................(1)

Water of temperature 0°C remains in the system = (600+135) = 735 g

Now in the system, Ice of 0°C and water of 0°C temperature are present so the heat transfer from water to ice make same amount of ice and water in the system. 

H2O(liquid)  H2O(solid)

Above equation is at constant equilibrium temperature  of 0°C
