Detailed Solution

Heat released by steam in conversion to water a 1000C is Q1 = mL = 4×540 = 2160 cal. Heat required to raise  tempreature of water from 460C to 1000C is Q2 = ms∆θ = 20×1×54 = 1080J     Q1 > Q2 and Q1Q2 = 2Hence all steam is not converted to water only half steam shall be converted to waterFinal mass of water = 20 + 2 = 22 gm
