Calculate the heat energy required to vapourize 50g of water initially at 80
oC if the specific heat capacity of water is 4.2Jg
-1K (specific latent heat of vapourization of water is 2260Jg
-1).

A.
533000J
-
B.
230000J
-
C.
117200J
-
D.
113000J
-
E.
4200J
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
Q = McΔθ + ml
Q = {50 x 4.2 x (100 - 80) + 50 x 2260} 117200J.
