Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The amount of heat released during condensation of given steam should be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
During the phase change, heat is absorbed or released and can be calculated by below mentioned formula,
In above formula, q is the amount of heat released or absorbed, m is mass of substance (in grams), C is specific heat capacity and
(b)

- 5-86 Using the phase diagram of water (Figure 5-20), describe the process by which you can sublime 1 g of ice at-10°C and at 1 atm pressure to water vapor at the same temperature.arrow_forward5-106 The normal boiling point of hexane, C6H14, is 69°C, and that of pentane, C5H12, is 36°C. Predict which of these compounds has a higher vapor pressure at 20°C.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
