Which statement about vaporization enthalpy and condensation enthalpy is correct?

Assuming an adiabatic system, how much energy would be required to completely boil 12 liters of water? Assume RT = 25degC.

PROBLEM 2 In general, the disposal of hot streams to the environment is not a good a practice due to the risk of violating EPA regulations and also, it represents as waste of potential useful energy. For example, raising the temperature of lakes, rivers, and atmosphere have negative consequences on the ecosystems. In this problem, a gas stream at 500°C contains eight percent mole carbon monoxide and the balance carbon dioxide. Before disposing this gas mixture stream into the atmosphere, it makes sense to recover some of its energy first. To achieve this we will use a heat exchanger where the gas stream flows across the tubes. Water flows inside the tubes entering at 25°C and it is fed at a ratio of 0.2 mole water per mole of the hot gas. The water is heating to its boiling point forming saturated steam at five bar. The steam produced can be used for heating or power generation in the facilities or as the feed for another unit operation. You can assume that heat exchanger is thermally…
