PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE QUESTION

How many joules are needed to vaporize 125 g of liquid water at 100°C? The latent heat of vaporization is 2258 J/g.

Answer 1

Q = 282,000 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The mass of liquid water, m = 125 g

Temperature, T = 100°C

The latent heat of vaporization, Hv = 2258 J/g.

We need to find the amount of heat needed to vaporize 125 g of liquid water. We can find it as follows :

`Q=mH_v\\\\Q=125\ g* 2285\ J/g\\\\Q=282250\ J`

or

Q = 282,000 J

So, the required heat is 282,000 J .
