Calculate the amount of heat in kilojoules required when 31.0 g of water at 52.5°C is converted to steam at 238.2°C.
Ti = 52.5 oC
Tf = 238.2 oC
here
Cl = 4.184 J/goC
Heat required to convert liquid from 52.5 oC to 100.0 oC
Q1 = m*Cl*(Tf-Ti)
= 31 g * 4.184 J/goC *(100-52.5) oC
= 6160.94 J
Lv = 2260.0 J/g
Heat required to convert liquid to gas at 100.0 oC
Q2 = m*Lv
= 31.0g *2260.0 J/g
= 70060 J
Cg = 2.01 J/goC
Heat required to convert vapour from 100.0 oC to 238.2 oC
Q3 = m*Cg*(Tf-Ti)
= 31 g * 2.01 J/goC *(238.2-100) oC
= 8611.242 J
Total heat required = Q1 + Q2 + Q3
= 6160.94 J + 70060 J + 8611.242 J
= 84832 J
= 84.8 KJ
Answer: 84.8 KJ
