Question and answer
Liquid nitrogen with a mass of 100 g at 77.3 K is stirred into a beaker containing 200 g of 5.00°C water. If the nitrogen leaves the solution as soon as it turns to gas, how much water freezes? (The latent heat of vaporization of nitrogen is 48.0 cal/g, and the latent heat of fusion of water is 79.6 cal/g.)

Heat absorbed = 100 g × 0.5 cal/g·K × (5.00°C - 77.3 K)
Heat released = 200 g × 1.00 cal/g·K × (0°C - 5.00°C)
Heat required to vaporize = 100 g × 48.0 cal/g
Calculate the heat required to freeze the water:
Heat required to freeze water = mass of water × latent heat of fusion of water
Heat required to freeze = 200 g × 79.6 cal/g
The amount of water that freezes is 5.0 g.
