Water of volume $2\, L$ in a closed container is heated with a coil of $1\, kW$. While water is heated,the container loses energy at a rate of $160\, J/s$. In how much time will the temperature of water rise from $27\, ^\circ C$ to $77\, ^\circ C$? (Specific heat of water is $4.2\, kJ/kg\cdot K$ and that of the container is negligible)

  • A
    $8\, min\, 20\, s$
  • B
    $6\, min\, 2\, s$
  • C
    $7\, min$
  • D
    $14\, min$

$2 \ kg$ of ice at $-20^{\circ} C$ is mixed with $5 \ kg$ of water at $20^{\circ} C$. The final mass of water formed is: (in $kg$)

Steam at $100^{\circ} C$ is added to $150 \,g$ of water to increase its temperature from $20^{\circ} C$ to $40^{\circ} C$. The total mass of the water at $40^{\circ} C$ is (specific heat capacity of water $= 1 \,cal \,g^{-1} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$ and latent heat of steam $= 540 \,cal \,g^{-1}$) (in $\,g$)

We have half a bucket $(6 \text{ litre})$ of water at $20^{\circ}C$. If we want water at $40^{\circ}C$,how much steam at $100^{\circ}C$ should be added to it?

Steam at $100^{\circ} C$ is passed into $1 \ kg$ of water contained in a calorimeter of water equivalent $0.2 \ kg$ at $9^{\circ} C$ until the temperature of the calorimeter and water in it increases to $90^{\circ} C$. The mass of steam condensed in $kg$ is nearly (specific heat of water $= 1 \ cal/g^{\circ} C$, latent heat of vaporisation $= 540 \ cal/g$)
