Paraphrase: About 500 grams of ice was crushed and mixed with approximately 100 grams

of table salt in a large container to form a freezing mixture.


1. Crush about 500 grams of ice and mix the ice with approximately 100 grams of table salt in
a large container to produce a freezing mixture.
2. Pour 25 mL of distilled water into a calorimeter and place the calorimeter in the freezing
mixture.
