How many grams of ice at $0 \, ^\circ \text{C}$ will be melted by $1 \, \text{g}$ of steam at $100 \, ^\circ \text{C}$? (Latent heat of fusion of ice $L = 80 \, \text{cal/g}$ and latent heat of vaporization of water $L' = 540 \, \text{cal/g}$)

$2 \; g$ 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 $cal/g$?

$A$ tap supplies water at $10\,^{\circ}C$ and another tap at $100\,^{\circ}C$. How many $kg$ of hot water must be taken so that we get $20\, kg$ of water at $35\,^{\circ}C$?

We have half a bucket $(6 \text{ litre})$ of water at $20^{\circ}C$. If we want water at $40^{\circ}C$,how much steam at $100^{\circ}C$ should be added to it?

$A$ piece of copper of mass $250 \ g$ at $500^{\circ} C$ is put inside a calorimeter of water equivalent $50 \ g$ containing $200 \ g$ of water at $20^{\circ} C$. At thermal equilibrium,the temperature of the mixture is $60^{\circ} C$. The specific heat of copper (in $J / kg \cdot ^{\circ} C$) is approximately: [Specific heat of water $= 4200 \ J / kg \cdot ^{\circ} C$]

In an experiment on the specific heat of a metal,a $0.20 \; kg$ block of the metal at $150 \; ^{\circ}C$ is dropped in a copper calorimeter (of water equivalent $0.025 \; kg$) containing $150 \; cm^{3}$ of water at $27 \; ^{\circ}C$. The final temperature is $40 \; ^{\circ}C$. Compute the specific heat of the metal. If heat losses to the surroundings are not negligible,is your answer greater or smaller than the actual value for the specific heat of the metal?
