 2. You know those fake ice cubes ((FFIC) you put into

2. You know those fake ice cubes ((FFIC) you put into a glass to cool down your drink? They don't melt, dissolve, or react with water, EtOH, etc.. Suppose each "ice cube" weighs 25g and has a temperature of 5C. You put three of these into a glass containing the 0.3L of water at 30C (the specific heat capacity of water is Cs=4.184Jg1K1 ). The FICs cool the drink down to 10C. Ignoring the contribution of the glass container, calculate the specific heat capacity of one FIC. (Hint: It may help to think of the FICs as the surroundings)
