Question

A swimmer coming out from a pool is covered with a film of water weighing about 18g. How much heat must be supplied to evaporate this water at 298 K? Calculate the internal energy of vaporisation at 100oC.
ΔvapH for water at 373K =40.66 kJ mol1.

Solution


H2O10g(l)vaporisation−−−−−−H2O10g(g) ΔvapH=40.66kJmol1
1mol 1mol
As ideal gas, ΔvapU=ΔvapHpΔV
=ΔvapHΔngRT
Here Δng=10=1mol
ΔvapU=40.66kJmol1(1mol)(8.314×103kJmol1k1)×(373k)
=40.66kJmol13.10
=37.56kJmol1
