The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of how much ice is needed to prepare 20 kg of water at 25°C from water at 45°C and ice at -10°C, we will use the principles of heat transfer and conservation of energy. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Variables**: - Let the mass of ice needed be \( m \) grams. - The mass of water from the overhead tank is \( 20 - m \) grams (since the total mass of the mixture is 20 kg). - The initial temperature of the water \( T_w = 45^\circ C \). - The final temperature of the mixture \( T_f = 25^\circ C \). - The initial temperature of the ice \( T_i = -10^\circ C \). 2. **Calculate the Heat Required to Warm the Ice to 0°C**: - The specific heat of ice \( c_{ice} = 0.5 \, \text{cal/g°C} \). - The heat required to raise the temperature of ice from -10°C to 0°C: \[ Q_1 = m \cdot c_{ice} \cdot \Delta T = m \cdot 0.5 \cdot (0 - (-10)) = 5m \, \text{cal} \] 3. **Calculate the Heat Required to Melt the Ice**: - The latent heat of fusion of ice \( L_f = 80 \, \text{cal/g} \). - The heat required to melt the ice at 0°C: \[ Q_2 = m \cdot L_f = m \cdot 80 = 80m \, \text{cal} \] 4. **Calculate the Heat Required to Raise the Temperature of Melted Ice to 25°C**: - The specific heat of water \( c_{water} = 1 \, \text{cal/g°C} \). - The heat required to raise the temperature of the melted ice (now water) from 0°C to 25°C: \[ Q_3 = m \cdot c_{water} \cdot \Delta T = m \cdot 1 \cdot (25 - 0) = 25m \, \text{cal} \] 5. **Total Heat Required for the Ice**: - The total heat required to convert the ice at -10°C to water at 25°C: \[ Q_{ice} = Q_1 + Q_2 + Q_3 = 5m + 80m + 25m = 110m \, \text{cal} \] 6. **Calculate the Heat Released by the Water**: - The heat released by the water cooling from 45°C to 25°C: \[ Q_{water} = (20 - m) \cdot c_{water} \cdot \Delta T = (20 - m) \cdot 1 \cdot (25 - 45) = (20 - m) \cdot (-20) = -20(20 - m) = -400 + 20m \, \text{cal} \] 7. **Set the Heat Gained by Ice Equal to the Heat Lost by Water**: - According to the principle of conservation of energy: \[ Q_{ice} = -Q_{water} \] \[ 110m = 400 - 20m \] 8. **Solve for m**: - Rearranging the equation: \[ 110m + 20m = 400 \] \[ 130m = 400 \] \[ m = \frac{400}{130} \approx 3.08 \, \text{kg} \] ### Final Answer: The mass of ice needed is approximately **3.08 kg**.
