19 g of water at 
and 5 g of ice at 
are mixed together in a calorimeter. What is the final temperature of the mixture? (Take, specific heat of ice 
and latent heat of fusion of ice 
)
Text Solution

Here, specific heat of ice, 
Specific heat of water, 
Latent heat of fusion of ice, 
Here, ice will absorb heat while hot water will release it.
Let T be the final temperature of the mixture.
Assuming water equivalent of calorimeter to be neglected.
Heat given by water, 
… (i)
Heat absorbed by ice,
= 
= 
… (ii)
According to principle of calorimetry,
