Heat energy of 184 kJ is given to ice of mass 600 g at -12 °C, Specific heat of ice is 2222.3 J kg1 °C1 and latent heat of ice is 336 kJ kg1.

(A) Final temperature of system will be 0 °C

(B) Final temperature of the system will be greater than 0 °C

(C) The final system will have a mixture of ice and water in the ratio of  5 : 1

(D) The final system will have a mixture of ice and water in the ratio of  1 : 5

(E) The final system will have water only

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Given:

Q=184×103 J,

m=0.600 kg at -12 °C,

S=2222.3 J kg1 °C1 and

L=336×103J kg-1

Heat required to convert ice from 12 °C to ice at 0 °C will be, 

Q1=0.600×2222.3×12=16000.56 J

Remaining heat Q=184000-16000.56

= 167999.44 J

Heat required to melt ice completely at 0 °C,

Q2 = 0.600 × 336000 = 201600 J needed which is more than Q, so 100% ice is not melted.

For amount of melted ice, we can write

167999.44=m×336000m= 0.4999 kg

 mass of water =0.4999 kg

Mass of ice remaining = 0.1001

 Ratio =0.10010.49991:5
