A thermally insulated vessel contains 150 g of water at 0°C. Then the air from the vessel is pumped out adiabatically. A fraction of water turns into ice and the rest evaporates at 0°C itself. The mass of evaporated water will be closest to (Latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.10106 J kg−1 and Latent heat of Fusion of water = 3.36105 J kg−1)

(a)

130g

(b)

150g

(c)

20g

(d)

35g

Answer Key / Explanation : (c) -

Let amount of water evaporated be m gram,

∴  m Lv = (150−m) Ls

m 540 = (150−m) 80

⇒ m  20g
