An electric heater with a constant heat supply rate is used to convert a certain amount of liquid ammonia to saturated vapour at high pressure. The heater takes $14 \text{ minutes}$ to bring the liquid at $15^{\circ}C$ to the boiling point of $50^{\circ}C$ and $92 \text{ minutes}$ to convert the liquid at the boiling point wholly to vapour. If the specific heat capacity of liquid ammonia is $4.9 \text{ kJ/kg K}$, the latent heat of vaporisation of ammonia in $\text{kJ/kg}$ is:

  • A
    $557$
  • B
    $981$
  • C
    $1127$
  • D
    $2250$

The heat extracted out of $x \ \text{g}$ of water initially at $50^\circ \text{C}$ to cool it down to $0^\circ \text{C}$ is sufficient to evaporate $(1000 - x) \ \text{g}$ of water also initially at $50^\circ \text{C}$. The value of $x$ (closest integer) is . . . . . . . (Take latent heat of water $L = 2256 \ \text{kJ/kg}$, specific heat capacity of water $c = 4200 \ \text{J/kg}\cdot \text{K}$)
