heat lost by metal= M metal*C metal*change in temperature
heat gained by ice-water= (Q ice + Q water)+ m water*C water* change in temperature
heat lost by metal= heat gained by ice-water
I keep trying but I can't get the right answer (9.5 Celcius) Any help is very appreciated.
Homework Statement
A 50-g of ice, initially at 0.0C, is dropped into 200 g of water in an 80-g
aluminum container, both initially at 30C. What is the final equilibrium
temperature? (Specific heat for aluminum is 900 J/Kg*C, the specific heat of
water is 4186 J/Kg*C, and...
