Step-by-step explanation:

Heat of vaporization is defined as the amount of heat required to change one mole of a liquid into vapor state without any change in the temperature.

It is known that for 1 mole of water, latent heat of vaporization is 40.6 kJ/mol.

Therefore, heat of vaporization for 1.30 moles will be calculated as follows.


1.30 moles * 40.6 kJ/mol

= 52.78 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that the 52.78 kJ of heat are needed to completely vaporize 1.30 moles of
H_(2)O.

The Kj of heat that are needed to completely vaporize 1.30 moles of H2O if the heat of vaporization for water is 40.6 Kj/mole is calculated as below

Q(heat) = moles x heat of vaporization)

=1.30 mol x40.6 kj/mol= 52.78 Kj is needed
