Q.

0.05 kg of steam at 373 K and 0.45 kg of ice at 253K are mixed in an insulated vessel. Find the equilibrium temperature of the mixture in Kelvin scale.

Given, Lfusion=80 cal/g=336J/g,Lvaporization=540 cal/g=2268J/g, Sice=2100J/kgK=0.5 cal/gK and  Swater=4200J/kgK=1 cal/gK

Detailed Solution

Heat lost by steam at  100°C to change to 100°C  water  Q1=mLvap=0.05×2268×1000=113400J
Heat lost by water at 100°C  to change to  0°C water  Q2=mCΔT=0.05×4200×100=21000J
Heat required by 0.45 kg ice from  253kto273k
 Q3=m×Cice×ΔT=0.45×2100×20=18900J
Similarly,   Q4=mLfusi=0.45×336×1000=151200J
 Q1+Q2>Q3          but    Q1+Q2<Q3+Q4
So whole ice will not melt.
 Final temp will be  273kor0°C
