A 0.5530-kg ice cube at -12.40°C is placed inside a chamber ofsteam at 365.0°C. Later, you notice that the ice cube hascompletely melted into a puddle of water. If the chamber initiallycontained 6.310 moles of steam (water) molecules before the ice isadded, calculate the final temperature of the puddle once itsettled to equilibrium. (Assume the chamber walls are sufficientlyflexible to allow the system to remain isobaric and considerthermal losses/gains from the chamber walls as negligible.)
