Question

What is the mass of a sample of water that takes 2000 kJ of energy to boil into steam at 373 K. The latent heat of vaporization of water is 2.25 x 10^6 J kg-1

Answer 1

0.89kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Q=mL L=specific latent heat

Q=energy required in J

m=mass in Kg

Q=mL

m=Q/L

m=2000000J/2.25 x 10^6 J kg-1

m=0.89kg
