A 0.770-9 piece of lithium metal is dropped into a mixture of 50.0 g water and 50.0 g ice, both at 0°C. The reaction is 2 Li(s) + 2 H2O(l) → 2 LiOH(aq) + H2(g) AHrxn = - 446 kJ/mol - Assuming no heat is lost to the surroundings, and that the final mixture has a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/g.°C, calculate the final temperature in °C. The enthalpy of fusion for ice is 6.02 kJ/mol.
