Solution
The correct option is C42.600 kJ/mol We can break it down into three parts.
(i) H2O(l,323K)→H2O(l,373K)
(ii) H2O(l,373K)→H2O(g,373K)
(iii) H2O(g,373K)→H2O(g,423K)
now,
in(i), q=nCv△T=1×75×50=3750J=3.75kJ w: negligible. ∴△E=3.75kJ
in (ii), q=mL=△Hvap=40.7kJ w=−Pext△V=−105Pa(22.4×373273×10−3m3) =−3.06kJ △E=+37.64kJ
in (iii) q=nCp△T=1×33.314×50 =1.666kJ ω=−105Pa(22.4×423273−22.4×373273)×10−3 =−0.410kJ △E=+1.256kJ △Etotal=+42.646kJ
