Calculate the heat energy required to vaporize ... - JAMB Physics 2021 Question
Calculate the heat energy required to vaporize 50g of water initially at 80ºC if the specific heat capacity of water is 4.23jg\(^{-1}\)k\(^{-1}\) (specific latent heat of vaporization of water is 2260jg\(^{-1}\)
A
530000J
B
23200J
C
17200J
D
130000J
correct option: d
H = mc\(\bigtriangleup\theta\) + mL
m = 50g, c = 4.23J/gk,L = 2260, \(\bigtriangleup\theta\) = 80ºC
H = 50 [4.23 x 80 + 2260]
= 129920 \(\approx\) 130,000J
