0.05 kg steam at 373K and 0.45kg of ice at 253K are mixed in an insultated vessel. Find the equilibrium temperature of the mixture. Given, `L_(fusion)=80cal//g=336J//g, L_(vaporization)=540 cal//g=2268J//g,C_(ice)=2100J//KgK=0.5calg//gK and S_(water)=4200J//KgK=1cal//gK` |

Answer» Correct Answer - B::C (1) Heat lost by steam at `100^@C` to change to `100^@C` water `mL_(vap)=0.05xx2268xx1000=1,13400J` (2) Heat lost by `100^@C` water to change to `0^@C` water `=0.05xx4200xx100=21,000J` (3) Heat required by o.45kg of ice to change its temperature from 253K to 273K `=mxxS_(ice)xxDeltaT=0.45xx2100xx20=18,900J (4) Heat required by `0.45kg` of ice at 273K to convert into `0.45kg` water at 273K `=mL_(fusion)=0.45xx336xx1000=151,200J` From the above data it is clear that the amount of heat required by 0.45kg of ice at 253K to convert into 0.45kg of water at `273K(1,70,100J)` cannot be provided by heat lost by 0.05 kg of steam at 373K to convert into water at 273K. Therefore the final temperature will be 273K or `0^@C.` |
