Homework Statement
A student places 21.4 grams of ice at 0.0C and 13.1 grams of steam at 100.0C in a sealed and insulated container. Determine the final temperature of the mixture.
m(ice)= 21.4 g or 0.0214 kg
m(steam)= 13.1 g or 0.0131 kg
Ti(ice)= 278.15 K
Ti(steam)= 378.15 K
Tf(ice)=Tf(steam)
Latent heat of fusion: 334 kJ/Kg
Latent heat of vaporization 2257 kJ/kg
Homework Equations
Q=mcΔT
Q=mL
Qt(hot)= -Qt(cold)
The Attempt at a Solution
I did it on paper and attempted to solve for T2 using latent heat of fusion on one side and the vaporisation on the other side but ended up getting 57.74K which I know is impossible. I think one of the objects doesn't fully change state but I don't know how to do those kinds of problems.
