Steam at is passed into of water contained in a calorimoter of water equivalent to at till the temperature of the calorimeter and its contents rises to . The mass of steam condensed (in ) is
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
(a) According to principle of calorimetry,
heat gained =~heat lost
Heat is lost by steam in two stages
(i) Change of state from steam at to water at is To change water at100 ° C80 ° Cm \times 1 \times \left(100 - 80\right)~where is the mass of the steam condensed.
Total heat lost by steam is
= 560m
Heat gained by calorimeter and \times \left(80 - 15\right) = 1 . 12 \times 65\text{cal}⇒ 560m = 1 . 12 \times 65⇒ m = \dfrac{1 . 12 \times 65}{560} =0 . 130kg
