  1. A sample of 10 g of liquid benzene at its boiling point is vaporised using a 12 V,
    0.5 A electric supply. The normal boiling point and latent heat of vaporisation of benzene are
    353.2 K and 30.8 * 10
    3 kJ/kmol respectively. Determine: (a) the change in internal energy, (b)
    the time required for complete vaporisation.
  2. A vessel of volume 1 m3 initially contains one per cent by volume saturated liquid water and
    the rest saturated vapour at 1 bar. How much heat is to be supplied so that the vessel gets filled
    with vapour? Take data from steam tables.
  3. Liquid water at 373 K and 101.3 kPa has an internal energy of 420 kJ/kg on an arbitrary basis.
    The specific volume at these conditions is 1.04 * 10
    – 3 m3/kg. The water is brought to the
    vapour state at 473 K and 700 kPa. At this condition, its specific volume is
    0.3 m3/kg and its enthalpy is 2844 kJ/kg. Calculate the enthalpy of the liquid and the changes in
    internal energy and enthalpy accompanying the vaporisation process.
