Calculate the heat energy required to vapourize... - WAEC Physics 1989 Question

Calculate the heat energy required to vapourize 50g of water initially at 80oC if the specific heat capacity of water is 4.2Jg-1K (specific latent heat of vapourization of water is 2260Jg-1).

A
533000J
B
230000J
C
117200J
D
113000J
