How many joules of heat are required to completely covert 85.0 grams of water at 40.0° C to steam at 100°C?

For water: c = 4.179 J/g °C Hfusion = 6.01 kJ/mol Hvap = 40.7 kJ/mol

q1 = heat needed to raise T of liquid water from 40 C to liquid water at 100 C.

q1 = mass H2O x specific heat H2O x (Tfinal-Tinitial)

q2 = heat needed to convert water at 100 C to steam at 100 C.
q2 = mass H2O x heat vaporization.

Total q = q1 + q2.

To determine the amount of heat required to convert water from a specified temperature to steam, we need to consider the following steps:

1. Calculate the heat required to raise the temperature of the water from 40.0°C to its boiling point, 100°C.
2. Calculate the heat required to convert the water at its boiling point to steam.

Step 1: Calculating the heat required to raise the temperature

The heat required to raise the temperature of a substance can be calculated using the formula:

q = m * c * ΔT

Where:
q is the heat (in joules)
m is the mass of the substance (in grams)
c is the specific heat capacity of the substance (in J/g°C)
ΔT is the change in temperature (in °C)

Given:
m = 85.0 grams
c (specific heat capacity of water) = 4.179 J/g°C
ΔT = (100°C - 40.0°C) = 60.0°C

Using the formula, we can calculate the heat required to raise the temperature:

q1 = 85.0 g * 4.179 J/g°C * 60.0°C

Step 2: Calculating the heat required for phase change

The heat required for phase change can be calculated using the formula:

q = n * ΔH

Where:
q is the heat (in joules)
n is the number of moles of substance undergoing phase change
ΔH is the enthalpy change for the phase change (in kJ/mol)

First, we need to convert the mass of water to moles using the molar mass of water. The molar mass of water (H2O) is 18.015 g/mol.

n = m / M

Where:
m is the mass of water (in grams)
M is the molar mass of water (in g/mol)

Given:
m = 85.0 grams
M (molar mass of water) = 18.015 g/mol

n = 85.0 g / 18.015 g/mol

Next, we can calculate the heat required for the phase change from liquid water to water vapor:

q2 = n * ΔHvap

Where:
ΔHvap is the enthalpy of vaporization (in kJ/mol)

Given:
ΔHvap = 40.7 kJ/mol

Now, we can calculate q2:

q2 = (85.0 g / 18.015 g/mol) * 40.7 kJ/mol

Finally, we can find the total heat required by adding q1 and q2:

Total heat = q1 + q2

Remember to convert kJ to J when adding the two values.
