7.00 kg piece of solid copper metal at an initial temperature T is placed with 2.00 kg of ice that is initially at -20.0°C. The ice is in an insulated container of negligible mass and no heat is exchanged with the surroundings. After thermal equilibrium is reached, there is 0.90 kg of ice and 1.10 kg of liquid water.

Required:
What was the initial temperature of the piece of copper?

Answer:

122°C

Explanation:

From the data Final temperature is 0 deg C since there is 0.9kg of ice and 1.10kg of liquid water.

That means that 1.10kg of the ice undergoes Heat of Fusion which is 3.34x10^5 J/kg...

Heat lost by copper = Heat gained by ice + Heat of fusion

-> (7.0kg)(390J/kg*C)(0-T) = (2.00kg)(2100J/kg*C)(0 - (-20) + (1.10kg)(3.34x10^5 J/kg)

-> T(2730) = 334001

-> T = 122°C
