प्रश्न
Explain why, steam at 100° C is better for heating purposes than boiling water at 100° C.
उत्तर
Steam at 100°C has more heat than water at the same temperature. Water gets converted into steam on gaining heat. Due to this latent heat of vaporisation, steam at 100°C is better for heating than boiling water at 100°C.
