$1 \,kg$ of ice at $-20^{\circ} C$ is mixed with $2 \,kg$ of water at $90^{\circ} C$. Assuming that there is no loss of energy to the environment,the final temperature of the mixture is ............ $^{\circ} C$. (Assume,latent heat of ice $= 334.4 \,kJ/kg$,specific heat of water and ice are $4.18 \,kJ \,kg^{-1} K^{-1}$ and $2.09 \,kJ \,kg^{-1} K^{-1}$,respectively.)

In an experiment on the specific heat of a metal,a $0.20 \; kg$ block of the metal at $150 \; ^{\circ}C$ is dropped in a copper calorimeter (of water equivalent $0.025 \; kg$) containing $150 \; cm^{3}$ of water at $27 \; ^{\circ}C$. The final temperature is $40 \; ^{\circ}C$. Compute the specific heat of the metal. If heat losses to the surroundings are not negligible,is your answer greater or smaller than the actual value for the specific heat of the metal?
