All the heat generated by a current of 2A passing through a resistor of 6Ω for 2.5s is used to evaporate 5 g of a liquid at its boiling point. What is the specific latent heat of the liquid?
A
60 Jg-1
B
120 Jg-1
C
300 Jg-1
D
360 Jg-1
correct option: b
Electrical Energy = Heat Energy.
I2Rt = ml
22 x 6 25 = 5 x L.
L = 120 Jg-1.
