When water is boiled to 100∘ C, it converts into steam which on condensation gives back water. Here, the heat given out is called latent heat of condensation which is equal to the latent heat of vapourisation.
How much mass of water at 100 ℃ must be heated so as to form steam at 100 ℃ when a burner supplies 45200 J of heat energy? Specific latent heat of vapourisation of water is 2260 J /g
