Ice at $-20\,^{\circ}C$ is added to $50\,g$ of water at $40\,^{\circ}C.$ When the temperature of the mixture reaches $0\,^{\circ}C,$ it is found that $20\,g$ of ice is still unmelted. The amount of ice added to the water was close to ........$g$ (Specific heat of ice $= 2.1\,J/g/^{\circ}C,$ Specific heat of water $= 4.2\,J/g/^{\circ}C,$ Heat of fusion of water at $0\,^{\circ}C = 334\,J/g).$
