Imagine a vessel containing 2.000 kg of liquid whose specific heat equals 1.50 kcal/kg/°c. Suposse that all of the liquid exists at its vaporization temperature of 450 k. We transfer 150 cal of heat energy to the liquid. What is the temperature of the liquid in the vessel after we've transferred this energy to it? help please have no idea how to solve

if it is already at its vaporization temp, the liquid cannot go higher regardless how much heat is added, it changes to vapor, and the liquid stays at the bp.
