Four ice cubes at exactly 0 ∘c with a total mass of 52.5 g are combined with 160 g of water at 90 ∘c in an insulated container. (δh∘fus=6.02 kj/mol, cwater=4.18j/g⋅∘c). if no heat is lost to the surroundings, what is the final temperature of the mixture?

Respuesta :

Heat gained by ice cubes would be equal to the - heat lost by warm water 

The moles of ice is: 50.5 g / 18.0 g/mol = 2.81 mol 

Heat required to melt all of the ice is equal to: 2.81 mol X 6.02 kJ/mol = 16.9 kJ = 16890 J 

Now, know whether the warm water will still be above 0C when it loses this much heat:
-1690 J = 160 g (4.184 J/gC) (Delta T) Delta T = -25C 

In order to solve for the final temperature, going back to include warming of the melted ice to a final temperature: 

q(ice/water) = - q(warm water) 

moles (Delta Hf) + m c (T2-T1) = - m c (T2-T1) 

50.5 g / 18.0 g/mol = 2.81 mol 

2.81 mol X 6.02 kJ/mol + 50.5g (4.184 J/gC) (T2-0) = -160g (4.184 J/gC) ( T2-80) 

16916 + 211.3T2 = -669.4 T2 + 53555 

36639 = 880.7 T2 

T2 = 41.6 C

Based on the data provided, the final temperature of the mixture is 49.1°C.

What is the final temperature of the mixture?

Based on the principle of conservation of energy:

  • Heat gained by ice cubes would be equal to the heat lost by warm water
  • Also, Q = mc◇T
  • Also Q = mL

moles of ice cube = mass/molar mass

molar mass of ice/water = 18m0 g/mol

moles of ice = 50.5 g / 18.0 g/mol = 2.81 moles

Heat required to melt all of the ice H = 2.81 mol X 6.02 kJ/mol

Heat required = 16.9 kJ = 16890 J.

Heat required to convert water at 0°C to a final temperature T2, H = mc◇T

Where ◇T = T2 - T1

H = 50.5 × 4.18 × (T2 - 0)

H = 211.09T

Total heat gained = 16980 + 211.09T

Heat lost by water at 90°C = m c (T1 - T2)

H = -160g (4.184 J/gC) ( 90 -T2)

H = 60192 - 668.8T2

Using heat gained = heat lost

16980 + 211.09T = 60192 - 668.8T2

60192 - 16980 = 668.8T2 + 211.09T2

43212 = 879.89T2

T2 = 49.1°C

Therefore, the final temperature of the mixture is 49.1°C.
