I take 2.0 kg of ice and dump it into 1.0 kg of water and, when equilibrium is reached, I have 3.0 kg of ice at 0°C. The water was originally at 0°C. The specific heat of water = 1.00 kcal/kg•°C, the specific heat of ice = 0.50 kcal/kg•°C, and the latent heat of fusion of water is 80 kcal/kg. The original temperature of the ice was:

a. one or two degrees below 0°C. c. -120°C. b. -80°C. d. The whole experiment is impossible.
