10-1.Thermometry, Thermal Expansion and Calorimetry
medium
A block of ice of mass $120\,g$ at temperature $0^{\circ} C$ is put in $300\,gm$ of water at $25^{\circ} C$. The $xg$ of ice melts as the temperature of the water reaches $0^{\circ} C$. The value of $x$ is
[Use: Specific heat capacity of water $=4200$
$J\,kg ^{-1} K ^{-1}$, Latent heat of ice $\left.=3.5 \times 10^{5} J\,kg ^{-1}\right]$
A
$90$
B
$89$
C
$95$
D
$100$
(JEE MAIN-2022)
Solution
Energy released by water
$=0.3 \times 2.5 \times 4200=31500\,J$
let $m \ kg$ ice melts
$m \times 3.5 \times 10^{5}=31.500$
$m =\frac{31500 \times 10^{-5}}{3.5}=9000 \times 10^{-5}$
$m =0.09\,kg =90\,gm$
$x =90$
