Question
Chapter 9, Problem 42QRT
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason to put the hailstones in a tightly sealed plastic bag inside the freezer compartment of a frost-free refrigerator has to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Sublimation:
The process of direct change of a solid phase into a gaseous phase without any intermediate phase is called sublimation.
Working of a frost-free refrigerator:
A frost-free refrigerator means instead of cooling coil electric fans are fixed with blowing the cold air into the compartments.

- 22) Evaporation of sweat requires energy and thus take excess heat away from the body. Some of the water that you drink may eventually be converted into sweat and evaporate. If you drink a 20-ounce bottle of water (590g) that had been in the refrigerator at 3.8 °C, how much heat is needed to convert all of that water into sweat and then to vapor? (Note: Your body temperature is 36.6 °C. For the purpose of solving this problem, assume that the therm properties of sweat are the same as for water.
