Find the specific heat of the body, when 0.2 kg of a body at 1000C is dropped into 0.5 kg of water at 100C, the resulting temperature is 160C. Given: Specific heat of water is 4.2 x 103 J/kg/0C.

heat loss by body= heat gain by water
however water vaporises at 100C and therefore you require the values of Latent heat of vaporisation and the specific heat of water vapor for the enclosed system to solve the qn :)
