write my assignment 3448

consider a system composed of a mixture of 2.5 kg of ice and 50 gr of liquid water and a small separate container of finely powdered salt. this physical system is contained in a fully insulated container that prevents all thermal interactions with the environment. both the salt and the ice-water mixture are initially at the freezing point, 0 degree celcius. the salt is then added to the ice-water mixture, and the system of ice-water and salt is allowed to come to thermal equilibrium. the final equilibrium temperature is less than 0 degree C. use the energy interaction model to predict if there will be a greater or lesser amount of ice in the final equilibrium state than in the initial state before the salt was added.
