10 kg of ice at is added to 100 kg of water to lower its temperature from 25 . Consider no heat exchange to surroundings. The decrement to the temperature of water is .
(specific heat of ice , specific heat of water , latent heat of fusion of ice )
(specific heat of ice , specific heat of water , latent heat of fusion of ice )
Options
- A6.67
- B11.6
- C15
- D10
Correct answer
D. 10
Step-by-step solution
Heat available from water cooling 25°C to 0°C: J.
Heat to warm ice from -10°C to 0°C: J.
Heat to melt ice at 0°C: J.
Total needed: J.
Since available heat exceeds required heat, all ice melts. Remaining heat: J
warms 110 kg water: °C.
Final temperature: 15°C.
Decrement in water temperature: °C.
