Chapter 13, Problem 13C.3P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The energy required to raise the temperature of $1.\text{0}\text{mol}$ ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}\left(\text{g}\right)$ from $\text{100°C}$ to $\text{200°C}$ has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The ratio of the total amount of internal energy of a substance with the resulting increased temperature is known as heat capacity.  The molar heat capacity at isochoric condition is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a mole of a substance by unity.  It is denoted by a symbol $C_{V,\text{m}}$.
