Answer:

= -20°C

Step-by-step explanation:

The specific heat capacity of ice using the cgs system is 0.5cal/g°C

The enthalpy change is calculated as follows

ΔH=MC∅ where M represents mass C represents specific heat and ∅ represents the temperature change.

10cal = 2g×0.5cal/g°C×∅

∅=10cal/(2g×0.5cal/g°C)

∅=10°C

Final temperature= -30°C+ 10°C= -20°C
