100 g of Ice at -10°C is added into a

Answer 1

Answer:

The mass of the juice responsible for melting the ice is 949.043 grams.

Explanation:

By the First Law of Thermodynamics, we understand that juice releases heat to the ice, which turns into water under the assumption that interactions between the ice-juice system and surroundings are negligible and energy processes are done in steady-state. Since juice is done with water, its specific heat will be taken as of the water. The process is described by the following formula:

$m_{i} \cdot [c_{i}\cdot (T_{1}-T_{2}) - L_{f} + c_{w}\cdot (T_{2}-T_{3})] + m_{w} \cdot c_{w}\cdot (T_{4}-T_{3}) = 0$ (1)

Where:

$m_{i}$ - Mass of ice, in grams.

$m_{w}$ - Mass of the juice, in grams.

$c_{i}$ - Specific heat of ice, in joules per gram-degree Celsius.

$c_{w}$ - Specific heat of water, in joules per gram-degree Celsius.

$L_{f}$ - Latent heat of fusion, in joules per gram.

$T_{1}$ - Initial temperature of ice, in degrees Celsius.

$T_{2}$ - Melting point of water, in degrees Celsius.

$T_{3}$ - Final temperature of the ice-juice system, in degrees Celsius.

$T_{4}$ - Initial temperature of the juice, in degrees Celsius.

If we know that $m_{i} = 100\,g$, $c_{i} = 2.090\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C}$, $c_{w} = 4.18\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C}$, $L_{f} = 334\,\frac{J}{g}$, $T_{1} = -10\,^{\circ}C$, $T_{2} = 0\,^{\circ}C$, $T_{3} = 10\,^{\circ}C$ and $T_{4} = 20\,^{\circ}C$, then the mass of the juice is:

$m_{w} = \frac{m_{i}\cdot [c_{i}\cdot (T_{1}-T_{2}) - L_{f} + c_{w}\cdot (T_{2}-T_{3})]}{c_{w} \cdot (T_{3}-T_{4})}$

$m_{w} = \frac{(100\,g)\cdot \left[\left(2.090\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (-10\,^{\circ}C) - 334\,\frac{J}{g} +\left(4.18\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (-10\,^{\circ}C) \right]}{\left(4.180\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (-10\,^{\circ}C)}$

$m_{w} = 949.043\,g$

The mass of the juice responsible for melting the ice is 949.043 grams.
