What do you understand by the ‘latent heat of vaporization’ of a substance?
Steam at 100°C is passed over 1000 g of ice at 0°C. After some time, 600 g of ice at 0°C is left and 450 g of water at 0°C is formed. Calculate the specific latent heat of vaporization of steam (Given: specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg°C, specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336,000 J/kg.)
If there is no Heat loss to the surroundings, the heat released by the condensation of m1 g of steam at 100°C into water at 100°C can be used to convert m2 g of ice at 0°C into water at 0°C.
(i) Find:
(a) The heat lost by steam in terms of m1
(b) The heat gained by ice in terms of m2
(ii) Form a heat equation find the ratio of m2 : m1
Specific latent heat of vaporization of steam = 2268 kJ/kg
Specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 kJ/kg
Specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg°C
1 kg of water is contained in a 1.25 kW kettle. Assuming specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g °C and specific latent heat of vaporization = 2260 J/g, calculate:
(i) the time taken for the temperature of water to rise from 25°C to its boiling point,
(ii) the mass of water which evaporates per minute from the boiling water.
