Question

500g of water at 60°C is contained in a vessel of negligible heat capacity. Into this water is added 400g of ice at 0°C. Calculate the amount of ice which does not melt.
[Take S.H.C of water =4.2Jg-1C-1 and S.L.H of ice =336Jg-1 ]

Solution

Step 1: Given data,

Mass of water=500g at 60°C

Mass of ice=400g at 0°C

SHC of water=c=4.2Jg-1C-1

SLH of ice=L=336Jg-1

Let T be the temperature of the water =60°C .

Step 2: Finding the amount of ice which does not melt.

Heat lost by 500g water at 60°C to cool to 0°C=mc(T-0)

=500×4.2×(60-0)J=500×4.2×60J


This heat loss is used in melting m gram of ice at 0°C, so

mL=500×4210×60m×336=3000×42m=3000×42336=375g
Amount of ice which does not melt =400-375=25g.

Hence, the 25g of ice will not melt.
