Latent heat
« on: April 18, 2017, 07:51:34 AM »
A vessel weighing 80 g (S.H.C.= 0.8 J/g) contains 250 g of water at 35 C. Calculate the amount of ice at 0 C, which must be added to be added to it, so that the final temperature is 5 C. (Latent heat of ice= 340 J/g).

can we use the first law of thermodynamics here?

Every heat balance problem is the application of the first law of thermodynamics. But no need for big guns here, it is just about writing a correct heat balance equation.

Don't forget that the added ice brings additional heat capacity.
