An insulated calorimeter contains 500 g of water at \(80^{\circ}\text{C}\). A 200 g aluminium block (specific heat capacity \(c_{\text{Al}} = 900\ \text{J kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\)) initially at \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\) is placed in the water. After thermal equilibrium the mixture reaches \(45^{\circ}\text{C}\). The calorimeter is then transferred to a freezer where heat is removed at a constant rate of \(120\ \text{J min}^{-1}\).\n\n(a) How long (in minutes) will it take for the mixture to cool from \(45^{\circ}\text{C}\) to \(0^{\circ}\text{C}\)?\n\n(b) After an additional \(30\,000\ \text{J}\) of heat have been removed beyond the \(0^{\circ}\text{C}\) point, how much ice (in grams) will have formed?
