A gas based geyser heats water flowing at the rate of $\displaystyle 5.0$ litres per minute from $\displaystyle 27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to $\displaystyle 87^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. The rate of consumption of the gas is $\displaystyle \_\_\_\_$ g/s. (Take heat of combustion of gas $\displaystyle =5.0 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{g}$ ) specific heat capacity of water $\displaystyle =4200 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{kg} .{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$
