Chapter 15, Problem 67E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The amount of heat absorbed by a sample of $\text{23}\text{.8 g}$ of acetone when it evaporates is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

Heat of vaporization is defined as the amount of heat required to vaporize $\text{1 g}$ of substance. Suppose, “q” is the amount of heat used to vaporize the “m” gram of the substance. The heat of vaporization will be equal to the $\frac{\text{q}}{\text{m}}$.
