- What is U when 1.00 mol of liquid water vaporizes at 100C? The heat of vaporization, Hvap, of water at 100C is 40.66 kJ/mol.arrow_forwardThe cooling effect of alcohol on the skin is due to its evaporation. Calculate the heat of vaporization of ethanol (ethyl alcohol), C2H5OH. C2H5OH(l)C2H5OH(g);H=? The standard enthalpy of formation of C2H5OH(l) is 277.7 kJ/mol and that of C2H5OH(g) is 235.1 kJ/mol.arrow_forwardThe vapor pressure of ethanol, C2H5OH, at 50.0 C is 233 mmHg, and its normal boiling point at 1 atm is 78.3 C. Calculate the vapH of ethanol.arrow_forward
- How many grams of water at 0C will be melted by the condensation of 1 g of steam at 100C?arrow_forwardWhy are steam burns so much worse than water burns even if the H2O is at the same temperature for both phases? Hint: Consider the heat of vaporization of water.arrow_forwardIn the northern United States, summer cottages are usually closed up for the winter. When doing so, the owners winterize the plumbing by putting antifreeze in the toilet tanks, for example. Will adding 525 g of HOCH2CH2OH to 3.00 kg of water ensure that the water will not freeze at 25 C?arrow_forward
- Follow the step-wise process outlined in Problem 31 to calculate the amount of heat involved in condensing 100.00 g of benzene gas (C6H6) at 80.00C to liquid benzene at 25.00C. Use Tables 8.1 and 8.2 for the specific heat, boiling point, and heat of vaporization of benzene.arrow_forwardThe enthalpy of vaporization of water is larger than its enthalpy of fusion. Explain why.arrow_forwardhe enthalpy (H)of vaporization of water is about seven times larger than water’s enthalpy fusion(41kJ/molvs.6kJ/mol). What does this tell us about the relative similarities among the solid, liquid, and gaseous states of water?arrow_forward
