The specific heat of water is $4200 \, J \, kg^{-1} \, K^{-1}$ and the latent heat of ice is $3.4 \times 10^{5} \, J \, kg^{-1}$. $100 \, g$ of ice at $0^{\circ} C$ is placed in $200 \, g$ of water at $25^{\circ} C$. The amount of ice that will melt as the temperature of the water reaches $0^{\circ} C$ is close to (in grams):

  • A
    $61.7$
  • B
    $63.8$
  • C

$2\, kg$ of ice at $-20^{\circ}C$ is mixed with $5\, kg$ of water at $20^{\circ}C$ in an insulating vessel having a negligible heat capacity. Calculate the final mass of water remaining in the container. It is given that the specific heats of water and ice are $1\, kcal/kg/^{\circ}C$ and $0.5\, kcal/kg/^{\circ}C$ respectively,while the latent heat of fusion of ice is $80\, kcal/kg$.

$100 \text{ g}$ of ice at $0^{\circ}C$ is mixed with $100 \text{ g}$ of water at $100^{\circ}C$. The final temperature of the mixture is. [Take,$L_f = 3.36 \times 10^5 \text{ J kg}^{-1}$ and $S_w = 4.2 \times 10^3 \text{ J kg}^{-1} \text{ K}^{-1}$] (in $^{\circ}C$)

$A$ block of ice of mass $120\,g$ at temperature $0^{\circ}C$ is put in $300\,g$ of water at $25^{\circ}C$. The $x\,g$ of ice melts as the temperature of the water reaches $0^{\circ}C$. The value of $x$ is.
[Use: Specific heat capacity of water $= 4200\,J\,kg^{-1}K^{-1}$,Latent heat of ice $= 3.5 \times 10^{5}\,J\,kg^{-1}$]

$A$ coffee maker makes coffee by passing steam through a mixture of coffee powder,milk,and water. If the steam is mixed at the rate of $50 \, g/min$ in a mug containing $500 \, g$ of mixture,then it takes about $t_0$ seconds to make coffee at $70^{\circ} C$ when the initial temperature of the mixture is $25^{\circ} C$. The value of $t_0$ is close to .......... $s$ (ratio of latent heat of evaporation to specific heat of water is $540^{\circ} C$ and specific heat of the mixture can be taken to be the same as that of water).

When $M_1$ gram of ice at $-10\,^{\circ}C$ (specific heat $= 0.5\, cal\, g^{-1}\,^{\circ}C^{-1}$) is added to $M_2$ gram of water at $50\,^{\circ}C$,finally no ice is left and the water is at $0\,^{\circ}C$. The value of latent heat of ice,in $cal\, g^{-1}$ is
