A mixture contains \(0.20\ \text{kg}\) of ice at \(-10^{\circ}\text{C}\) and \(0.50\ \text{kg}\) of water at \(30^{\circ}\text{C}\). The specific heat capacities are \(c_{\text{ice}}=2.1\ \text{kJ kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\) and \(c_{\text{water}}=4.18\ \text{kJ kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\); the latent heat of fusion of ice is \(L_f=334\ \text{kJ kg}^{-1}\). After the ice and water are mixed, the system loses \(10\%\) of the heat released by the water to the surroundings before equilibrium is reached. Calculate the mass of ice that remains unmelted after the process (give your answer in grams, to three significant figures).
