Calculate the heat change at 100C in each of the following problems.Indicate whether heat was absorbed or released.

a. calories to condense 10.0 g of steam
b. kilocalories to condense 75g of steam
c. kilocalories to vaporize 44 g of water.

3 answers

a.
q = mass steam x delta Hvap.
b.
see a. Convert to kcal.
c.
mass H2O x deltaH vap. Convert to kcal.
a. 12
First you multiply 10.0 with 540cal/1 g of H2O.

To calculate the amount of heat added to (or removed from) a sample of water, the mass of the sample is mulitipled by the heat of vaporization, which is 2260. As before, no temperature change occurs during a change of state.

the answer for a will be 5400
