1. An ice cube of mass 65 g is taken from a freezer at -15°C and dropped into 125 cm of
water at 85°C. What will be the final temperature of the mixture? The specific heat of ice
is 0.5 cal/g.°C and latent heat of fusion of ice is 80 cal/g. (-
2. A 58-g copper calorimeter (sp. ht. 0.093 cal /g.°C) contains 260 g of water at 20°C. When
78 g of an alloy at 95°C is dropped into the calorimeter, the resulting temperature is 28°C.
What is the specific heat of the alloy?.
