The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of mixing `1 kg` of ice at `0°C` with `1 kg` of steam at `100°C`, we need to analyze the heat transfer that occurs until thermal equilibrium is reached. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the heat required to convert ice to water at `0°C`:** - The latent heat of fusion of ice is given as \( L_f = 3.36 \times 10^5 \, \text{J/kg} \). - For `1 kg` of ice, the heat required to convert it to water at `0°C` is: \[ Q_1 = m \cdot L_f = 1 \, \text{kg} \cdot 3.36 \times 10^5 \, \text{J/kg} = 3.36 \times 10^5 \, \text{J} \] 2. **Identify the heat required to raise the temperature of water from `0°C` to `100°C`:** - The specific heat capacity of water is \( c = 4186 \, \text{J/(kg°C)} \). - The heat required to raise the temperature of `1 kg` of water from `0°C` to `100°C` is: \[ Q_2 = m \cdot c \cdot \Delta T = 1 \, \text{kg} \cdot 4186 \, \text{J/(kg°C)} \cdot (100 - 0)°C = 4.186 \times 10^5 \, \text{J} \] 3. **Calculate the total heat required to convert `1 kg` of ice at `0°C` to water at `100°C`:** - The total heat required is: \[ Q_{\text{total}} = Q_1 + Q_2 = 3.36 \times 10^5 \, \text{J} + 4.186 \times 10^5 \, \text{J} = 7.546 \times 10^5 \, \text{J} \] 4. **Identify the heat released by steam when it condenses to water at `100°C`:** - The latent heat of vaporization of water is given as \( L_v = 2.26 \times 10^6 \, \text{J/kg} \). - The maximum heat released by `1 kg` of steam when it condenses to water is: \[ Q_{\text{released}} = m \cdot L_v = 1 \, \text{kg} \cdot 2.26 \times 10^6 \, \text{J/kg} = 2.26 \times 10^6 \, \text{J} \] 5. **Determine if the heat released by steam is sufficient to convert ice to water:** - Since \( Q_{\text{released}} = 2.26 \times 10^6 \, \text{J} \) is greater than \( Q_{\text{total}} = 7.546 \times 10^5 \, \text{J} \), the steam can provide enough heat to convert the ice to water. 6. **Calculate the mass of steam that will condense to provide the required heat:** - Let \( m \) be the mass of steam that condenses. The heat released by this mass of steam is: \[ Q_{\text{released}} = m \cdot L_v \] - Setting this equal to the total heat required: \[ m \cdot 2.26 \times 10^6 = 7.546 \times 10^5 \] - Solving for \( m \): \[ m = \frac{7.546 \times 10^5}{2.26 \times 10^6} \approx 0.333 \, \text{kg} \, \text{or} \, 333 \, \text{g} \] 7. **Determine the final composition of the system:** - The mass of steam remaining after condensation: \[ \text{Remaining steam} = 1 \, \text{kg} - 0.333 \, \text{kg} = 0.667 \, \text{kg} \, \text{or} \, 667 \, \text{g} \] - The mass of water formed from the ice: \[ \text{Water from ice} = 1 \, \text{kg} + 0.333 \, \text{kg} = 1.333 \, \text{kg} \, \text{or} \, 1333 \, \text{g} \] ### Final Composition: - Water: `1.333 kg` (or `1333 g`) - Steam: `0.667 kg` (or `667 g`)

To solve the problem of mixing `1 kg` of ice at `0°C` with `1 kg` of steam at `100°C`, we need to analyze the heat transfer that occurs until thermal equilibrium is reached. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the heat required to convert ice to water at `0°C`:** - The latent heat of fusion of ice is given as \( L_f = 3.36 \times 10^5 \, \text{J/kg} \). - For `1 kg` of ice, the heat required to convert it to water at `0°C` is: \[ ...
