JEE MainPhysicsHeat and ThermodynamicsNumerical+4 / −1
A block of ice of mass 120 g at temperature 0 ∘^\circ∘ C is put in 300 g of water at 25 ∘^\circ∘ C. The x g of ice melts as the temperature of the water reaches 0 ∘^\circ∘ C. The value of x is ‾\underline{\hspace{2cm}}​. [Use specific heat capacity of water = 4200 Jkg −-− 1K −-− 1, Latent heat of ice = 3.5 ×\times× 105 Jkg −-− 1]

  1. Given data
  • Mass of ice: mi=120 g=0.12 kgm_i = 120\,\text{g} = 0.12\,\text{kg}mi​=120g=0.12kg at 0∘C0^\circ\text{C}0∘C
  • Mass of water: mw=300 g=0.30 kgm_w = 300\,\text{g} = 0.30\,\text{kg}mw​=300g=0.30kg at 25∘C25^\circ\text{C}25∘C
  • Final temperature: 0∘C0^\circ\text{C}0∘C
  • Specific heat capacity of water: c=4200 J kg−1K−1c = 4200\,\text{J kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}c=4200J kg−1K−1
  • Latent heat of fusion of ice: L=3.5×105 J kg−1L = 3.5 \times 10^5\,\text{J kg}^{-1}L=3.5×105J kg−1
  1. Heat lost by water in cooling from 25∘C25^\circ\text{C}25∘C to 0∘C0^\circ\text{C}0∘C

Qlost=mwcΔTQ_{\text{lost}} = m_w c \Delta TQlost​=mw​cΔT

Qlost=0.30×4200×25Q_{\text{lost}} = 0.30 \times 4200 \times 25Qlost​=0.30×4200×25

Qlost=31500 JQ_{\text{lost}} = 31500\,\text{J}Qlost​=31500J

  1. Heat required to melt xxx g of ice

If xxx g of ice melts, then melted mass in kg is

x1000\frac{x}{1000}1000x​

Heat required for melting:

Qgain=x1000×3.5×105Q_{\text{gain}} = \frac{x}{1000} \times 3.5 \times 10^5Qgain​=1000x​×3.5×105

  1. Apply heat balance

Since final temperature is 0∘C0^\circ\text{C}0∘C, all heat lost by water is used only to melt some ice:

31500=x1000×3.5×10531500 = \frac{x}{1000} \times 3.5 \times 10^531500=1000x​×3.5×105

31500=350x31500 = 350x31500=350x

x=31500350=90x = \frac{31500}{350} = 90x=35031500​=90

  1. Check

Initial ice mass is 120 g120\,\text{g}120g, so melting of 90 g90\,\text{g}90g is possible.

Hence, the amount of ice melted is:

90\boxed{90}90​
