Evaluating the final equilibrium temperature


For a class explanation, your physics instructor pours 1.18 kg of steam at 100.0°C over 4.81 kg of ice at 0.0°C and permits the system to reach equilibrium. He is then going to evaluate the temperature of the system. While the system arrives equilibrium, you are given the latent heats of ice and steam and the specific heat of water: Lice = 3.33•105 J/kg, Lsteam = 2.26•106 J/kg, cwater = 4186 J/(kg °C). You are asked to compute the final equilibrium temperature (in °C) of the system. What value do you get?
