The temperature of water of mass $100 \ g$ is raised from $24^{\circ} C$ to $90^{\circ} C$ by adding steam to it. The mass of the steam added is (Latent heat of steam $= 540 \ cal \ g^{-1}$ and specific heat capacity of water $= 1 \ cal \ g^{-1} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$) (in $g$)

$A$ kettle with $2\, L$ of water at $27\, ^oC$ is heated by a coil heater with a power of $1\, kW$. The heat is lost to the atmosphere at a constant rate of $160\, J/s$ when its lid is open. In how much time will the water be heated to $77\, ^oC$ (specific heat of water $= 4.2\, kJ/(kg \cdot K)$) with the lid open?

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 $= 540 \ cal/g$)

An iron ball of mass $0.2\,kg$ is heated to $100\,^{\circ}C$ and put into a block of ice at $0\,^{\circ}C.$ If $25\,g$ of ice melts,and the latent heat of fusion of ice is $80\,cal/g,$ find the specific heat of iron in $cal/g\,^{\circ}C.$
