$A$ $2\,kg$ copper block is heated to $500^\circ C$ and then it is placed on a large block of ice at $0^\circ C$. If the specific heat capacity of copper is $400\, J/kg/ ^\circ C$ and latent heat of fusion of water is $3.5 \times 10^5\, J/kg$,the amount of ice that can melt is:

  • A
    $7/8\, kg$
  • B
    $7/5\, kg$
  • C
    $8/7\, kg$
  • D
    $5/7\, kg$
