Homework Statement
A well-insulated bucket of negligible heat capacity contains 177 g of ice at 0°C.
(a) If 20 g of steam at 100°C is injected into the bucket, what is the final equilibrium temperature of the system? I've already solved this part to be 0 degrees Celsius.
(b) What mass of ice remains?
Homework Equations
Q = mc(deltaT)
m = Q/Lf
The Attempt at a Solution
From the example in the textbook, it seems I only have to find the heat necessary to cool the steam from 100 degrees to 0 degrees, and then divide this number by the latent heat of ice (333.5 kJ/kg). 2.02 is the specific heat of steam. So, I did (.02)(2.02)(100). This gave me a heat of 4.04 kJ. I then divided this number by the latent heat of ice, 333.5, and came out with an answer of .01211 kg. I converted this to g (12.11 g), and subtract this from 177. My final answer was 164.886457 g, but this is incorrect. Help?
