A cube of ice is taken from the freezer at -9.5 ∘C and placed in a 75-g aluminum calorimeter filled with 310 g of water at room temperature of 20.0 ∘C. The final situation is observed to be all water at 15.0 ∘C. The specific heat of ice is 2100 J/kg⋅∘C, the specific heat of aluminum is 900 J/kg⋅∘C, the specific heat of water is is 4186 J/kg⋅∘C, the heat of fusion of water is 333 kJ/Kg. What was the mass of the ice cube?
