A 49 g ice cube at its melting point is dropped into an insulated container of liquid nitrogen. Assume for simplicity that the specific heat of ice is a constant and is equal to 2100 J/kg⋅C∘.

How much nitrogen evaporates if it is at its boiling point of 77 K and has a latent heat of vaporization of 200 kJ/kg?
