Homework Statement
A 300 cm3 glass is filled with 120 g of ice at 0°C and 210 g of water at 25°C.
(a) Characterize the content of the glass after equilibrium has been reached. Neglect heat transfer to and from the environment.
Find:
mass of water?
mass of ice?
equilibrium temperature?
Homework Equations
Q=mL
delta Q1 + delta Q2 + delta Q3 = 0
delta q= 0 (for the system)
The Attempt at a Solution
I don't know how to solve for the latent heat of fusion, so I tried to set up a series of equations from which I would be able to substitute to solve for the unknowns. I ended up with too many variables and not able to isolate them to solve for values. Since the latent heat of fusion is the heat flow necessary to bring about a phase change, I assumed that Q=mL would be a necessary equation, but I can't figure out how to implement the equation to get values. Any help on starting this problem would be appreciated!
Thank-you!
