You need to use units.
Hv=2260kj/kgwater=2260kj*1kcal/4.18kj*1/kgwater
Hv= 540kcal/kgwater.
Q=m*Hv
mass=Q/Hv= 5.40kg/(540kcal/kgwater)
= .01kg=100grams water
If 5.40 kcal of heat is added to 1.00 kg of water at 100⁰C, how much steam at 100⁰C is produced? Show all calculations leading to an answer.
Is this how you would do this?
Q= m*Hvap
Q= m* 5.40
Q=100*5.40
Steam = 540 kg of steam?
