2 kg of ice at -20 °C is mixed with 5 kg of water at 20 °C in an insulating vessel having a negligible heat capacity. Calculate the final mass of water remaining in the container. It is given that the specific heats of water and ice are 1 kcal kg-1 °C-1 and 0.6 kcal kg-1 °C-1, while the latent heat of fusion of ice Li is 80 kcal kg-1.

In an industrial process 10 kg of water per hour is to be heated from 20 °C to 80°C. To do this, steam at 150 °C is passed from a boiler into a copper coil immersed in water. The steam condenses in the coil and is returned to the boiler as water at 90 °C, how many kg of steam is required per hour.

(Specific heat of steam, cs=1 kcal kg-1 °C-1, Latent heat of vaporisation, Lv=540 kcal kg-1and specific heat of water, cw=1 kcal kg-1 °C-1)
