A 250 g copper block at \(150\) °C is placed into 500 g of water initially at \(25\) °C in an insulated container. The specific heat capacities are \(c_{Cu}=0.385\) J g⁻¹ K⁻¹ and \(c_{water}=4.18\) J g⁻¹ K⁻¹. After thermal equilibrium the mixture reaches a temperature \(T_1\). Then 100 g of ice at \(0\) °C is added, melts, and the final equilibrium temperature becomes \(10\) °C. Using this information, calculate the latent heat of fusion of ice.

Answer Options

A. 3.75×10² J g⁻¹
B. 4.50×10² J g⁻¹
Correct Answer C. 4.06×10² J g⁻¹
D. 5.10×10² J g⁻¹
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
4.06×10² J g⁻¹
