Question

An lnsulated vessel contains 0.4 kg of water at 0oC. A piece of 0.1 kg ice at 15oC is put into it and steam at 100C is bubbled into it until all ice is melted and finally the contents are liquid water at 40oC. Assume that the vessel does not give or take any heat and there is no loss of matter and heat to the surroundings. Specific heat of ice is 2.2×103Jkg1K1, heat of fusion of water is 333×103Jkg1 and heat of vaporization of water is 2260×103Jkg1. The amount of steam that was bubbled in to the water is about :

Solution

The correct option is D 48.0 g
Mass of ice mi=0.1 kg
Mass of water mw=0.4 kg
Initial temperature of ice Ti=15oC
Initial temperature of water T1=0oC
Final temperature of water T2=40oC

Total amount of heat absorbed Ha=miSi(T1Ti)+miLf+(mi+mw)Sw(T2T1)
Ha=0.1(2200)(15)+0.1(333000)+(0.5)(4200)(40)=120600J

Heat released by the steam Hr=mLv+mSw(10040)
Hr=m(2.260×103)+m(4200)(60)=m(2512000)J

Using Ha=Hr we get m×2.512×103=120600 m=0.048 kg
Hence mass of steam required is 48.0 g
