If $70.0 \text{ g}$ of steam at $100.0^\circ\text{C}$ is mixed with $350.0 \text{ g}$ of ice at $0.0^\circ\text{C},$ in a thermally isolated container, what is the approximate temperature of the mixture at equilibrium?

The specific heat of water is $c_w=4187 \text{ J/kg}\cdot\text{K},$ and the latent heat of fusion and vaporization of water are $L_f=333 \text{ kJ/kg}$ and $L_v=2336 \text{ kJ/kg},$ respectively.
