What will be the final mass ratio (water/steam) when you mix together equal parts ice at 0 degrees C and steam at 100 degrees C? The specific heat of ice is 2100 J/kg*C, the specific heat of water is 4168 J/kg*C and the specific heat of steam is 2010 J/kg*C. The latent heat of fusion for water is 333 kJ/kg and the latent heat of vaporization is 2260 kJ/kg. (The answer will have no units)
