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!

The cure for trichomoniasis is easy as long as the patient does not drink alcoholic beverages for 24 hours. Just a single dose of medication is needed to rid the body of the disease. However, without proper precautions, an individual may contract the disease repeatedly. In fact, most people develop trichomoniasis again within three months of their last treatment.

Signs and symptoms of a drug overdose include losing consciousness, fever or sweating, breathing problems, abnormal pulse, and changes in skin color.

To prove that stomach ulcers were caused by bacteria and not by stress, a researcher consumed an entire laboratory beaker full of bacterial culture. After this, he did indeed develop stomach ulcers, and won the Nobel Prize for his discovery.

Drugs are in development that may cure asthma and hay fever once and for all. They target leukotrienes, which are known to cause tightening of the air passages in the lungs and increase mucus productions in nasal passages.

For about 100 years, scientists thought that peptic ulcers were caused by stress, spicy food, and alcohol. Later, researchers added stomach acid to the list of causes and began treating ulcers with antacids. Now it is known that peptic ulcers are predominantly caused by Helicobacter pylori, a spiral-shaped bacterium that normally exist in the stomach.
