Calorimetry, Latent Heat & Mechanical Equivalent of Heat
Given that 1 g of water in liquid phase has volume 1 cm and in vapour phase 1671 cm at atmospheric pressure and the latent heat of vaporization of water is 2256 J/g; the change in the internal energy in joules for 1 g of water at 373 K when it changes from liquid phase to vapour phase at the same temperature is:
Show answer and solution
Answer: (c)
- , with .
- So the answer is (c) 2089.
