A \(2.0\;\text{kg}\) copper block (specific heat \(c_{\text{Cu}} = 0.385\;\text{kJ·kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\)) at \(150^{\circ}\text{C}\) is placed in an insulated container with \(5.0\;\text{kg}\) of water (specific heat \(c_{\text{w}} = 4.18\;\text{kJ·kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\)) initially at \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\). After thermal equilibrium is reached, a \(0.5\;\text{kg}\) piece of ice at \(0^{\circ}\text{C}\) is added and melts completely. The latent heat of fusion of ice is \(L_f = 334\;\text{kJ·kg}^{-1}\). Determine the final temperature of the whole system (in °C, to the nearest degree).
