Problem

Estimate how many grams of ice-cream is possible to be made out of 5 l5 \mathrm{l} of liquid oxygen with temperature −196 \C-196 \mathrm{\C } and unlimited amount of milk and cream with room temperature 22 \C22 \mathrm{\C }? Let's suppose that ice-cream consists of milk and cream only (same mass of both ingredients) and the temperature of the ice-cream should be −5 \C-5 \mathrm{\C }. Use average heat capacity c_m=3,45 kJ⋅kg−1⋅K−1c\_m = 3{,}45 \mathrm{kJ\cdot kg^{-1}\cdot K^{-1}} for milk and c_s=4,45 kJ⋅kg−1⋅K−1c\_s = 4{,}45 \mathrm{kJ\cdot kg^{-1}\cdot K^{-1}} for cream (despite the fact that changes considerably in this temperature range). Find other needed quantities on the internet by yourself.
