$A$ glass beaker contains $200 \,g$ of carbonated water initially at $20^{\circ} C$. How much ice should be added to obtain the final temperature of $0^{\circ} C$ with all ice melted, if the initial temperature of ice is $-10^{\circ} C$ (in $\,g$)? Neglect the heat capacity of the glass.
[Take, $C_{\text{water}} = 4190 \,J/kg^{\circ} C$, $C_{\text{ice}} = 2100 \,J/kg^{\circ} C$, $L_F = 3.34 \times 10^5 \,J/kg$]

$A$ 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 $kJ \; kg^{-1} K^{-1}$.

$100 \, g$ of water is supercooled to $-10 \, ^\circ C$. At this point,due to some disturbance,some of it suddenly freezes to ice. What will be the temperature of the resultant mixture and how much mass would freeze? $[S_W = 1 \, cal \, g^{-1} \, ^\circ C^{-1}$ and $L_{fusion} = 80 \, cal \, g^{-1}]$

Ice at $-20\,^{\circ}C$ is added to $50\,g$ of water at $40\,^{\circ}C.$ When the temperature of the mixture reaches $0\,^{\circ}C,$ it is found that $20\,g$ of ice is still unmelted. The amount of ice added to the water was close to ........$g$ (Specific heat of ice $= 2.1\,J/g/^{\circ}C,$ Specific heat of water $= 4.2\,J/g/^{\circ}C,$ Heat of fusion of water at $0\,^{\circ}C = 334\,J/g).$

$A$ kettle with $2\, L$ of water at $27\, ^oC$ is heated by a coil heater with a power of $1\, kW$. The heat is lost to the atmosphere at a constant rate of $160\, J/s$ when its lid is open. In how much time will the water be heated to $77\, ^oC$ (specific heat of water $= 4.2\, kJ/(kg \cdot K)$) with the lid open?
