Look up the heat of fusion of ethanol.


Heat in water freezing= masswater*Hfwater

Heat in alchol freezing=massalcohol*Hfalc

set the equal, and solve for mass of alcohol.

(m_(water ) 〖Lf〗_water)/〖Lf〗_alcohol =m_alcohol
(3.0×(33.5×〖10〗^4 ))/((10.8×〖10〗^4 ) )=m_alcohol=9.3kg

Maryo you are right! :)
