200 g of water at \(80^{\circ}\text{C}\) is mixed with 300 g of water at \(25^{\circ}\text{C}\) in an insulated container. (a) Find the final equilibrium temperature of the mixture. (b) Using the mixture at the final temperature, determine the maximum mass of ice at \(0^{\circ}\text{C}\) that can be melted. (Take the specific heat capacity of water as \(4.18\ \text{J g}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\) and the latent heat of fusion of ice as \(334\ \text{J g}^{-1}\).)

Answer Options

A. Final temperature = 47°C; mass of ice melted ≈ 250 g
B. Final temperature = 38°C; mass of ice melted ≈ 340 g
C. Final temperature = 52°C; mass of ice melted ≈ 180 g
Correct Answer D. Final temperature = 47°C; mass of ice melted ≈ 294 g
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
Final temperature = 47°C; mass of ice melted ≈ 294 g
