$A$ calorimeter contains $0.5 \,kg$ of water at $30^{\circ} C$. When $0.3 \,kg$ of water at $60^{\circ} C$ is added to it, the resulting temperature is found to be $40^{\circ} C$. The water equivalent of the calorimeter is (in $\,kg$)

  • A
    $0.25$
  • B
    $0.1$
  • C

Steam at $100^{\circ} C$ is passed into $1 \, kg$ of water contained in a calorimeter at $9^{\circ} C$ until the temperature of the water and calorimeter increases to $90^{\circ} C$. The mass of the steam condensed is nearly (water equivalent of calorimeter $= 0.1 \, kg$, specific heat of water $= 1 \, cal \cdot g^{-1} \cdot {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$, and latent heat of vaporisation $= 540 \, cal \cdot g^{-1}$). (in $g$)

Two liquids $A$ and $B$ are at temperatures of $75^{\circ} C$ and $15^{\circ} C$. Their masses are in the ratio of $2: 3$ and their specific heats in the ratio $3: 4$. If these two liquids are mixed,then the resulting temperature will be $...^{\circ} C$.

Ice at $-20\,^{\circ}C$ is added to $50\,g$ of water at $40\,^{\circ}C.$ When the temperature of the mixture reaches $0\,^{\circ}C,$ it is found that $20\,g$ of ice is still unmelted. The amount of ice added to the water was close to ........$g$ (Specific heat of ice $= 2.1\,J/g/^{\circ}C,$ Specific heat of water $= 4.2\,J/g/^{\circ}C,$ Heat of fusion of water at $0\,^{\circ}C = 334\,J/g).$

Steam at $100^{\circ} C$ is passed into $114 \ g$ of water at $30^{\circ} C$. The mass of water present in the mixture when the temperature of the mixture becomes $70^{\circ} C$ is (Latent heat of steam $= 540 \ cal \ g^{-1}$; specific heat capacity of water $= 1 \ cal \ g^{-1} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$) (in $g$)

When $100\,g$ of a liquid $A$ at $100\,^oC$ is added to $50\,g$ of a liquid $B$ at temperature $75\,^oC$,the temperature of the mixture becomes $90\,^oC$. The temperature of the mixture,if $100\,g$ of liquid $A$ at $100\,^oC$ is added to $50\,g$ of liquid $B$ at $50\,^oC$,will be ........$^oC$
