Q. The amount of heat required to convert 1 g of ice (specific 0.5 cal at

g^{- 1 o} C^{- 1}

) at

100

^{\circ} C

is ___________.

[ Given: Latent heat of ice is

80 C a l / g m,

Latent heat of steam is

540 C a l / g m

, Specific heat of water is

]

20 gm

ice at

is mixed with

m gm

steam at

100^{\circ} C

. The minimum value of

m

so that finally all ice and steam converts into water at

0^{\circ} C

(

Use: specific heat and latent heat as

C_{i c e} = 0.5 cal/gm^{\circ} C, C_{water} = 1 cal/gm^{\circ} C, L_{f u s i o n}

= 80 cal/gm

and

L_{v a p o r}

= 540 cal/gm

)

Determine the final result when 200 gm of water and 20 gm of ice at $0^{\circ} C$ are in a calorimeter having a water equivalent of 30 gm. 50 gm of steam is passed into it at $100^{\circ} C$ . Take latent heat of fusion 80 cal/gm and latent heat of vaporization as 540 cal/gm
