Steam at $100^{\circ}C$ is passed into a calorimeter containing $1\,kg$ of water with a water equivalent of $0.02\,kg$ at $15^{\circ}C$ until the temperature of the calorimeter rises to $80^{\circ}C$. The mass of the steam condensed is $.....\,kg$. (Given: $L = 536\,cal/g$,specific heat of water $c = 1\,cal/g^{\circ}C$)

Two liquids $A$ and $B$ are at temperatures of $75^{\circ} C$ and $15^{\circ} C$. Their masses are in the ratio of $2: 3$ and their specific heats in the ratio $3: 4$. If these two liquids are mixed,then the resulting temperature will be $...^{\circ} C$.

What is calorimetry? What is a calorimeter? Explain its principle and construction.

$A$ piece of metal of mass $5 \ kg$ and temperature $-50 \ ^\circ C$ is dropped in $20 \ kg$ water at $52 \ ^\circ C$ temperature. In thermal equilibrium,the temperature of water decreases by $2 \ ^\circ C$. Find the specific heat of the metal in $Cal/g \ ^\circ C$.

$10\; g$ of ice cubes at $0\;^{\circ} C$ are released in a tumbler (water equivalent $55\; g$) at $40\;^{\circ} C$. Assuming that negligible heat is taken from the surroundings,the temperature (in $^{\circ} C$) of water in the tumbler becomes nearly $(L_f = 80\; cal/g)$.

$A$ sphere of $0.047 \; kg$ aluminium is placed for a sufficient time in a vessel containing boiling water,so that the sphere is at $100 \; ^{\circ}C$. It is then immediately transferred to a $0.14 \; kg$ copper calorimeter containing $0.25 \; kg$ water at $20 \; ^{\circ}C$. The temperature of the water rises and attains a steady state at $23 \; ^{\circ}C$. Calculate the specific heat capacity of aluminium in $kJ \; kg^{-1} K^{-1}$.
