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 $= 540 \ cal/g$)

$5 \ kg$ of water at $20^{\circ} C$ is added to $10 \ kg$ of water at $60^{\circ} C$. Neglecting the heat capacity of the vessel and other losses,the resultant temperature will be nearly: (in $^{\circ} C$)

$2 \; g$ of steam condenses when passed through $40 \; g$ of water initially at $25 \; ^\circ C$. The condensation of steam raises the temperature of water to $54.3 \; ^\circ C$. What is the latent heat of steam in $cal/g$?

$1 \text{ kg}$ of steam at $150^{\circ} \text{C}$ is passed from a steam chamber into a copper coil immersed in $20 \text{ L}$ of water. The steam condenses in the coil and is returned to the steam chamber as water at $90^{\circ} \text{C}$. The latent heat of steam is $540 \text{ cal g}^{-1}$,and the specific heat of steam is $1 \text{ cal g}^{-1} {}^{\circ} \text{C}^{-1}$. The rise in temperature of the water is: (in $^{\circ} \text{C}$)
