You are given a pot of hot tea (350 mL) at a temperature of 85°C and a quantity of ice at -12°C. Determine the absolute minimum amount of ice you can add to the hot tea so that at equilibrium you have iced tea (ie. a very, very small amount of ice and some water). You can assume tea has the same density (1.00 g/mL) and specific heat (4190 J/kgK) as liquid water. The heat of fusion of H2O is 3.33x10^5 J/kg. The specific heat of ice is 2090 J/kgK.

348 g

Explanation:

The heat gained by the ice equals the heat lost by the hot tea.

Also, since we require a very, very small amount of ice and some water, to still have some ice, the temperature of the hot tea has to decrease to the melting point of ice which is 0°C. So, the final temperature of the mixture is 0 °C.

So, mc(T - T') + mL = -MC(T - T") where m = mass of ice, c =  specific heat of ice = 2090 J/kgK., T = final temperature of mixture = 0 °C, T' = initial temperature of ice = -12 °C, L = heat of fusion of H2O = 3.33 × 10⁵ J/kg, M = mass of hot tea = ρV where ρ = density of tea = 1.00 g/mL and V = volume of hot tea = 350 mL. So, M = ρV = 1.00 g/mL × 350 mL = 350 g = 0.350 kg, C = specific heat of tea = 4190 J/kgK and T" = initial temperature of tea = 85 °C.

Making m subject of the formula, we have

mc(T - T') + mL = -MC(T - T")

m[c(T - T') + L] = -MC(T - T")  

m = -MC(T - T")/[c(T - T') + L]

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

m = -MC(T - T")/[c(T - T') + L]

m = -0.350 kg × 4190 J/kgK(0 °C - 85 °C.)/[2090 J/kgK(0 °C. - (-12 °C)) + 3.33 × 10⁵ J/kg]

m = -1466.5 J/kK(- 85 °C)/[2090 J/kgK(0 °C + 12 °C)) + 3.33 × 10⁵ J/kg]

m = 124652.5 J/[2090 J/kgK(12 °C) + 3.33 × 10⁵ J/kg]

m = 124652.5 J/[25080 J/kg + 3.33 × 10⁵ J/kg]

m = 124652.5 J/358080 J/kg

m = 0.3481 kg

m = 348.1 g

m ≅ 348 g

So, the minimum amount of ice to be added is 348 g.

the warning light flashes for a second or two when the engine starts. if it stays on, there's must be something wrong with the coolant. you should never dare to continue driving when the light is on. pull over as soon as possible and shut the engine off.

hope this is what you're talking about
