Hi lb_gilbert.

I'm not a chemistry expert, but I did find a similar question with a solution attached:

Two 20.0-g ice cubes at –17.0 °C are placed into 255 g of water at 25.0 °C. Assuming no energy is transferred to or from the surroundings, calculate the final temperature of the water after all the ice melts.

Answer

∆T for ice = (0 - (-17)) = +17 ºC
∆T for the water from the ice = (T - 0) - T ºC
∆T for the initial water only = (T - 25)

Heat quantity Q change for the ice = mol(ice)*cp(ice)*17 + enthalpy of fusion*mol(ice) + mol(ice)*cp(water)*T

Heat quantity Q change for the water = m0l(water)*cp(water)*(T - 25)

molar mass H2O = 18g/mol so 40g ice = 2.22 mol(ice) and 255 g water = 15.3 mol(water)

2.22*37.7*17 + 2.22*6010 + 2.22*75.3*T + 15.3*75.3*(T - 25) = 0

14740 + 167.2*T + 1152*T - 28802 = 0

1389*T = 14062

T = 10.1 ºC

Looking forward to more questions and your response!

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.
