Calculate the mass of ice required to lower the temperature of 300 g of water from 40o C to water at 0o C.
[Specific latent heat of ice = 336 J/g, specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/go C]


Let m be the mass of the ice that has to be added.

Heat energy required to melt to lower the temperature = mL = m x 336

Heat energy imparted by the water in fall of its temperature from 40o C to 0o C
= mass of water x specific heat capacity x fall in temperature
= 300 x 4.2 x 40o

If there is no loss of heat,
straight m space straight x space 336 space straight J divided by straight g space equals space 300 space straight g space straight x space 4.2 space straight J divided by straight g to the power of straight o space straight C space straight x space 40 to the power of straight o space straight C

therefore space straight m space equals space fraction numerator 300 space straight x space 4.2 space straight x space 40 over denominator 336 end fraction
space space space space space straight m space equals space 150 space straight g
