KVPY2018ChemistryThermodynamics (C)
The quantity of heat (in J ) required to raise the temperature of 1 . 0   k g of ethanol from 293 . 45   K to the boiling point and then change the liquid to vapor at that temperature is closest to [Given, boiling point of ethanol 351 . 45   K . Specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol 2 . 44   J   g - 1   K - 1 . Latent heat of vaporisation of ethanol 855   J g - 1 ]
Options
- A142 × 10 2
- B9 . 97 × 10 2
- C142 × 10 5
- D9 . 97 × 10 5
Correct answer
D. 9 . 97 × 10 5
Step-by-step solution
Given, mass of ethanol = 1   k g = 1000   g Latent heat of vaporisation of ethanol = 855   J g - 1 Specific heat capacity of ethanol = 2 . 44   J / g k - 1 Heat, q = m c   Δ   T + heat of vaporisation = 1000 × 2 . 44   ( 351 . 45 - 293 . 45 ) + 855 × 1000   J = 9 . 97 × 10 5   J
