Detailed Solution
Heat required by ice to raise its temperature to 100°C is Q1=m1L1+m1c1Δθ1=5×80+5×1×100 = 400 + 500 = 900 calHeat given by steam, when condensed is Q2=m2L2=5×540=2700 calSince Q2>Q1, it means that the whole steam is not even condensed. Hence, temperature of mixture remains at 100°C.
