प्रश्न
Write scientific reason.
Use a pressure cooker to cook food in cold air.
उत्तर
- Normally, in cold air, more heat energy needs to be supplied to attain high temperatures required for cooking food. It also consumes more time.
- Whereas, pressure cooker operates by giving out the air within the cooker and trapping steam produced from the liquid, (mostly water) boiling inside.
- Due to high internal pressure, boiling point of liquid increases and liquid boils at temperature higher than its boiling point.
- The increased boiling point allows more absorption of heat by liquid and steam formed is superheated causing food to get cooked quickly.
Hence, it is advisable to use a pressure cooker to cook food in cold air.

Which has more heat: 1 g ice at 0℃ or 1g water 0℃? Give reason.
Calculate the total amount of heat energy required to convert 100 g of ice at −10℃ completely into water at 100℃. Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.1 J g-1 K-1, specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J g-1K-1, specific latent heat of ice = 336 J g-1.
Liquid ammonia is used in ice factory for making ice from water. If water at 20°C is to be converted into 2 kg ice at 0°C, how many grams of ammonia are to be evaporated? (Given: The latent heat of vaporization of ammonia = 341 cal/g)
A thermally insulated pot has 150 g ice at temperature 0°C. How much steam of 100°C has to be mixed to it, so that water of temperature 50°C will be obtained? (Given : latent heat of melting of ice = 80 cal/g, latent heat of vaporization of water = 540 cal/g, specific heat of water = 1 cal/g °C)
