200 g of water at \(80^{\circ}\text{C}\) is mixed with 100 g of ice at \(-10^{\circ}\text{C}\). The mixture is placed in an insulated container and heated by a \(60\ \text{W}\) electric heater for \(5\) min. Specific heat capacities are \(c_{\text{water}}=4.18\ \text{J g}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\), \(c_{\text{ice}}=2.09\ \text{J g}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\), and the latent heat of fusion of ice is \(L_f=334\ \text{J g}^{-1}\). Assuming no heat loss to the surroundings, determine the final temperature of the system in degrees Celsius, to one decimal place.
