$10 \, g$ of ice at $0 \, ^oC$ is mixed with $m \, g$ of water at $50 \, ^oC$. What is the minimum value of $m$ (in $g$) so that the ice melts completely? (Given: $L_f = 80 \, cal/g$ and $S_W = 1 \, cal/g \cdot ^oC$)

In an industrial process,$10 \, kg$ of water per hour is to be heated from $20^\circ C$ to $80^\circ C$. To do this,steam at $150^\circ C$ is passed from a boiler into a copper coil immersed in water. The steam condenses in the coil and is returned to the boiler as water at $90^\circ C$. How many $kg$ of steam is required per hour? (Specific heat of steam $= 1 \, cal/g^\circ C$,Latent heat of vaporisation $= 540 \, cal/g$)

$10 \ kg$ of ice at $-10^{\circ}C$ is added to $100 \ kg$ of water to lower its temperature from $25^{\circ}C.$ Consider no heat exchange to surroundings. The decrement to the temperature of water is . . . . . . $^{\circ}C.$ (specific heat of ice $= 2100 \ J/kg.^{\circ}C$, specific heat of water $= 4200 \ J/kg.^{\circ}C$, latent heat of fusion of ice $= 3.36 \times 10^{5} \ J/kg$)

$A$ small quantity,mass $m$,of water at a temperature $\theta$ (in $^oC$) is poured onto a large mass $M$ of ice which is at its melting point. If $c$ is the specific heat of water and $L$ is the latent heat of fusion of ice,then the mass of ice melted is given by

The temperatures of equal masses of three different liquids $A, B$ and $C$ are $15^{\circ} C, 24^{\circ} C$ and $30^{\circ} C$ respectively. The resultant temperature when liquids $A$ and $B$ are mixed is $20^{\circ} C$ and when liquids $B$ and $C$ are mixed is $26^{\circ} C$. Then the ratio of specific heat capacities of the liquids $A, B$ and $C$ is
