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
    $69.3$
  • D
    $64.6$

Water is kept in a thermally insulated container at a temperature of $-10^{\circ}C$. If a small piece of ice is dropped into it, what will be the ratio of the mass of ice formed from the water to the initial mass of water?

$A$ liquid of mass $M$ and specific heat $S$ is at a temperature $2t$. If another liquid of thermal capacity $1.5$ times,at a temperature of $\frac{t}{3}$ is added to it,the resultant temperature will be

Two liquids $A$ and $B$ are at $32^{\circ}C$ and $24^{\circ}C$. When mixed in equal masses,the temperature of the mixture is found to be $28^{\circ}C$. Their specific heats are in the ratio of:

$A$ piece of metal of mass $5 \ kg$ and temperature $-50 \ ^\circ C$ is dropped in $20 \ kg$ water at $52 \ ^\circ C$ temperature. In thermal equilibrium,the temperature of water decreases by $2 \ ^\circ C$. Find the specific heat of the metal in $Cal/g \ ^\circ C$.

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 ........$^oC$
