1 litre of coffee at 80oC need to be cooled to 40oC. Assuming that all the ice melts and no heat is lost to the environment. Take the specific heat capacity of coffee to be 4200J/kgK, density of coffee to be 1000kg/m3 and latent heat of fusion of water to be 3.34 x 105 J/kg. You are required to:
a) Determine the heat lost by the coffee when ice is added and coffee cools to 40oC?
Solution:
