Soapstone is a type of metamorphic rock that is used as an ice alternative to cool drinks without the drawback of watering down the beverage. Soapstone is chosen due to its relatively high specific heat capacity of 1.089 J/g°C. Assume you have 224 g of water at 28.5 °C, what mass of -8.67 °C soapstone in kg is required to cool your water to 10.0 °C? (Specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J/g°C)
