Question
When water is heated to a temperature x, it gets converted into steam at temperature x by a process called R. And when steam at temperature x is cooled, it gets reconverted into water at the same temperature x by a process called S.
- How much is the value of x in Kelvin ?
- What is the process R called ?
- What is the name of the energy absorbed during the process R ?
- What is process S known as ?
- What is the name of energy released during the process S known as ?\\
Solution
- The value of ‘x’ in Kelvin is 373K.
- Vaporisation or boiling
- Latent heat of vaporisation
- Condensation
- Latent heat of condensation
