$10 \, g$ of ice at $0 \, ^oC$ is mixed with $m \, g$ of water at $50 \, ^oC$. What is the minimum value of $m$ (in $g$) so that the ice melts completely? (Given: $L_f = 80 \, cal/g$ and $S_W = 1 \, cal/g \cdot ^oC$)

Some steam at $100^o \, C$ is passed into $1.1 \, kg$ of water contained in a calorimeter of water equivalent $0.02 \, kg$ at $15^o C$ so that the temperature of the calorimeter and its contents rises to $80^o \, C$. What is the mass of steam condensing (in $kg$)?

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

$A$ metal ball of mass $100 \ g$ at $20^{\circ} C$ is dropped in $200 \ ml$ of water at $80^{\circ} C$. If the resultant temperature is $70^{\circ} C$,then the ratio of specific heat of the metal to that of water is

$A$ small quantity of water of mass $m$ at temperature $\theta^{\circ} C$ is mixed with a large mass $M$ of ice which is at its melting point. If $s$ is the specific heat capacity of water and $L$ is the latent heat of fusion of ice,then the mass of ice melted is:
