Ice at $0^oC$ is added to $200\,g$ of water initially at $70^oC$ in a vacuum flask. When $50\,g$ of ice has been added and has all melted,the temperature of the flask and contents is $40^oC$. When a further $80\,g$ of ice has been added and has all melted,the temperature of the whole is $10^oC$. Calculate the specific latent heat of fusion of ice. [Take $S_w = 1\,cal/g^oC$.]

  • A
    $3.8 \times 10^5\,J/kg$
  • B
    $1.2 \times 10^5\,J/kg$
  • C
    $2.4 \times 10^5\,J/kg$
  • D
    $3.0 \times 10^5\,J/kg$

Steam at $100^{\circ} C$ is passed into $114 \ g$ of water at $30^{\circ} C$. The mass of water present in the mixture when the temperature of the mixture becomes $70^{\circ} C$ is (Latent heat of steam $= 540 \ cal \ g^{-1}$; specific heat capacity of water $= 1 \ cal \ g^{-1} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$) (in $g$)

$10\; g$ of ice cubes at $0\;^{\circ} C$ are released in a tumbler (water equivalent $55\; g$) at $40\;^{\circ} C$. Assuming that negligible heat is taken from the surroundings,the temperature (in $^{\circ} C$) of water in the tumbler becomes nearly $(L_f = 80\; cal/g)$.

Equal masses of three liquids $A, B$ and $C$ have temperatures $10\,^{\circ}C$,$25\,^{\circ}C$ and $40\,^{\circ}C$ respectively. If $A$ and $B$ are mixed,the mixture has a temperature of $15\,^{\circ}C$. If $B$ and $C$ are mixed,the mixture has a temperature of $30\,^{\circ}C$. If $A$ and $C$ are mixed,the mixture will have a temperature of ........ $^{\circ}C$
