how to find the final state of 120grams of steam @ 125 degree celcius 560 ice @ -16 degree celcius how to mix it? what are the steps and formulas? please,,help,,
Assume will happen in closed insulated container. Bring steam down to 100 oC with heat given up of the mass times specific heat times (125-100). Bring mass of ice up to 0 oC with heat lost of mass times specific heat times (0-16) get initial estimate of temperature from mixing heat from hot water (mass)(specific heat) (100-T') = heating of cold water)= MASS(specific heat)(T'-0) This is the temperature from mixing. You would have a new mass of mixed water at T' temperature. Use the net heating or cooling from melting and condensing to adjust this final temperature up or down from net heat = (total mass) (specific heat)(T'T') This is a little project, but I believe these steps will solve it.
