In an industrial process $10\, kg$ of water per hour is to be heated from $20°C$ to $80°C$. To do this steam at $150°C$ is passed from a boiler into a copper coil immersed in water. The steam condenses in the coil and is returned to the boiler as water at $90°C.$ how many $kg$ of steam is required per hour. $($Specific heat of steam $= 1$ $calorie \,per\, gm°C,$ Latent heat of vaporisation $= 540 \,cal/gm)$

  • A

    $1 \,gm$

  • B

    $1\, kg$

  • C

    $10\, gm$

  • D

    $10 \,kg$
