Answer:


Q=210.8kJ

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the heat of vaporization is related with the energy required by a substance to undergo the phase transition from liquid to gas, we can compute such amount of energy as shown below:


Q=m\Delta H_(vap)

In such a way, since the enthalpy of vaporization is given as well as the mass, we compute the energy as shown below:


Q=155g*1360J/g\\\\Q=210.8kJ

Best regards!
