5 g of ice at $$-30^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$ and 20 g of water at $$35^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$ are mixed together in a calorimeter. The final temperature of the mixture is (Neglect heat capacity of the calorimeter, specific heat capacity of ice $$=0.5 \mathrm{cal} \mathrm{g}^{-1}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}$$ and latent heat of fusion of ice $$=80 \mathrm{cal} \mathrm{g}^{-1}$$ and specific heat. capacity of water $$=1 \mathrm{cal} \mathrm{g}^{-1}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}$$)
- A$$0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$
- B$$4^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$
- C$$5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$
- D$$9^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$
