Detailed Solution
Here, Specific heat of water, sw=1 cal g−1∘C−1 Latent heat of steam, Ls=540 cal g−1 Heat lost by mg of steam at 100∘C to change into water at 80∘C is Q1=mLs+mswΔTw=m×540+m×1×(100−80)=540m+20m=560m Heat gained by 20g of water to change its temperature from 10∘C to 80∘C is Q2=mwswΔTw=20×1×(80−10)=1400 According to principle of calorimetry Q1=Q2∴ 560m=1400 or m=2.5gTotal mass of water present =(20+m)g=(20+2.5)g=22.5g
