Question
Below is the reaction for the evaporation of water.
H2O (I) H20 (g)
AH°f H2O (1)= -285.8 kJ/mole ; H20 (g) = -241.8 kJ/mole
%3D
Calculate AH*rxn for this process.
This is the reaction that happens when your sweat evaporates. Why is
this a cooling mechanism for your body?
How much sweat would have to evaporate from a person's skin to
cool the body by 0.5 C? Assume this person has a body mass of 150
Ibs and the specific heat capacity of the body is 4.0 J/g °C. 1 Ib. =
0.454 kg
