Answer:


m_(leftover)=37g

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the melting process involves the heat added to the system, the heat of fusion and the mass of water:


Q=m\Delta H_(fus)

Thus, as it has been reported that the heat of fusion of ice is 333.6 J/g, we can compute the melted mass of ice as shown below:


m=(Q)/(\Delta H_(fus)) =(46000J)/(333.6J/g)\\\\m=138g

Thus, the ice leftover results:


m_(leftover)=175g-138g\\\\m_(leftover)=37g

Regards!
