If 10 g10 \mathrm{~g} oficeis added to 40 g40 \mathrm{~g} of water at 15∘C15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, then the temperature ofthemixture is (specificheat of water =4.2×103 J kg−1 K−1=4.2 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~kg}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}, Latentheatoffusion of ice =3.36×105 J kg−1=3.36 \times 10^5 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~kg}^{-1} )

Options

  1. A15∘C15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}
  2. B12∘C12^{\circ} \mathrm{C}
  3. C10∘C10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}
  4. D0∘C0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}

Correct answer

D. 0∘C0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}

Step-by-step solution

Heat lost by water to come from 15∘C15^{{}^{\circ}} \mathrm{C} to 0∘C0^{{}^{\circ}} \mathrm{C} is H1=msΔT=401000×(4.2×103)×(15−0)=2520J\begin{aligned} H_1=m s \Delta T & =\frac{40}{1000} \times \left(4.2 \times10^3\right)\times(15-0) \\ & =2520 \mathrm{ J} \end{aligned}Heat requiredtotoconvert 10 \mathrm{ g} ice into 10 \mathrm{ g} water at 0^{{}^{\circ}} \mathrm{C} is H_2=mL=\frac{10}{1000} \times\left(3.36 \times10^5\right)=3360 \mathrm{ J}SinceH2>H1,sothewholeicewillnotbeconvertedintowater,whereastheH_2 > H_1, so the whole ice will not be converted into water, whereas thetemperature of the whole water will be 0^{{}^{\circ}}\mathrm{C}. Thereforethethetemperature of the mixture is 0^{{}^{\circ}}\mathrm{C}.$
