    Final Mixture
AI Thread Summary
To calculate the final temperature of a mixture of ice and water, one must consider the heat transfer between the two substances. The specific heat capacities of ice and water, along with the enthalpy of fusion for ice, are crucial for solving the problem. The heat gained by the ice as it warms and melts must equal the heat lost by the water as it cools. Without access to the textbook, the individual is seeking guidance on the appropriate equations and methods to approach the calculation. Accurate application of thermodynamic principles will lead to the final temperature of the mixture.

Homework Statement


A 22.0 g sample of ice at -12.0°C is mixed with 120.0 g of water at 86.0°C. Calculate the final temperature of the mixture assuming no heat loss to the surroundings. The heat capacities of H2O(s) and H2O(l) are 2.08 and 4.18 J/g°C, respectively, and the enthalpy of fusion for ice is 6.02 kJ/mol


Homework Equations


I am not at home and don't have my book and the homework is due at 6:30 tonight so I can't figure out how to do this.


The Attempt at a Solution


I have no idea what equations to use to even try an attempt. Please Help.

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
