- Why does sweating cool the human body?arrow_forward22) 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. Us, liquid water = 4.184 J/g °C Cs, steam= 1.84 J/g °C C3, ice = 2.09 /g °C AHvap = 40.67 kJ/mol at 36.6 °C. %3D A Hus = 6.01 kJ/mol A) 1420 kJ B) 81 kJ C) 1150 kJ 23) Based on the graph shown below, choose the correct statement about sublimation? Gas Liquid sublimation Solid A) Sublimation is a phase transition from solid to gas B) According to Hess Law, AHsub can be calculated as sum of AHvap and AHUS C) Both A and B are correctarrow_forwardPlease solve the questions comprehensively. Thank you! Compare the effect of drinking 250-ml of ice water with the cooling effect of sweating out 250-ml of water. Calculate the amount of heat (joules) required to convert 200g of ice cubes (0°C) to gas at 100°C.arrow_forward
- How many grams of water at 0C will be melted by the condensation of 1 g of steam at 100C?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true? Specific heat capacity is dependent on the amount of the substance Specific heat is characterized as a function of temperature Latent heat of fusion is dependent on temperature ? Latent heat of fusion is usually greater than the latent heat of vaporization.arrow_forwardHello there! I’m trying to understand calorimetry and I’m a bit confused about how when finding latent heat of fusion, why the amount of ice you have will have an impact on the measured latent heat of fusion. Is it typical to have a more accurate measurement when you use more ice as apposed to less? I’m just trying to wrap my head around this subject and was hoping you guys might have some helpful knowledge you could share? Thanks!arrow_forward

Assuming no energy is transferred to or from the surroundings, calculate the final temperature, ?f,�f, of the water after all the ice melts.arrow_forwardTwo 20.0 g ice cubes at −10.0 ∘C are placed into 285 g of water at 25.0 ∘C.
