  In an experiment to determine the specific latent heat of vaporization of water, steam at 100⁰c was passed into water contained in a well-lagged copper calorimeter. The following measurements were made:
  Mass of calorimeter = 50g
  Initial mass of water = 70g
  Final mass of calorimeter + water + condensed steam = 123g
  Final temperature of mixture = 30⁰C
  
  (Specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J kg ^-1K and specific heat capacity for copper = 390 J kg ^-1 K^-1)
  Determine the:
  i) Mass of condensed steam
  ii) Heat gained by the calorimeter and water
  iii) Given that L is the specific latent heat of evaporation of steam
  I. Write an expression for the heat given out by steam
  II. Determine the value of L.
