medium
$200 \,g$ of ice at $-20^{\circ} C$ is mixed with $500 \,g$ of water at $20^{\circ} C$ in an insulating vessel. Final mass of water in vessel is ........... $g$ (specific heat of ice $=0.5 \,cal g ^{-10} C ^{-1}$ )
A
$700$
B
$600$
C
$400$
D
$200$
Solution
(b)
Maximum heat supplied by water
$\Delta Q_1=500 \times 1 \times(20-0)$
$=10,000 \,cal$
Heat required to raise the temperature of ice upto $0^{\circ} C$
$\Delta Q_2=200 \times 0.5 \times 20$
$=2000 \,cal$
$\Delta Q_1-\Delta Q_2=8000 \,cal$
Melts the ice
$8000=m \times 80$
$m=100 \,g$
So, mass of water is $500+100=600 \,g$.
