A mixture of saturated liquid water and saturated steam at T = 120 °C has a specific enthalpy of 2000 kJ⁄kg. What is the quality of this mixture?

if you could show how to do it, that'd be great.

Liquid water at 15 ℃ is heated by mixing it with saturated steam at the same pressure. Liquid water enters a chamber at a rate of 4.3 kg/s and saturated steam enters at a rate of 0.17 kg/s. The mixture leaves the mixing chamber as a saturated liquid at 40℃. If the surroundings are at 15℃, determine (a) the temperature of the saturated steam entering the chamber, (b) the exergy destruction during this mixing process, and (c) the second-law efficiency...
