### Ch 8 Exercise 41

A 50.0g ice cube at 0.0 degrees Celsius is added to a glass containing 400.0g of water at 45.0 degrees Celsius. What is the final temperature of the system? Assume that no heat has been lost to the surroundings.

Why do we use this equation to solve the problem? And why are the equations set equal to one another? :
[(m)(specific heat)(delta T)]+[(n)(delta H of fusion) of ice]=[-(m)(specific heat)(delta T) of water]

### Re: Ch 8 Exercise 41

They are set equal to each other because the heat lost by the water goes to the ice. Also i think they are equal to each other with a negative sign like this -q(ice)=q(water)
