Problem

Ice at 0∘C0^{\circ}\mathrm{C} is added to 200 g200\ \mathrm{g} of water initially at 70∘C70^{\circ}\mathrm{C} in a vacuum flask. When 50 g50\ \mathrm{g} of ice has been added and has completely melted, the temperature of the flask and contents is 40∘C40^{\circ}\mathrm{C}. When a further 80 g80\ \mathrm{g} of ice has been added and has completely melted, the temperature becomes 10∘C10^{\circ}\mathrm{C}. Find the latent heat of fusion of ice.
