- A sealed container holding 0.500 kg of liquid nitrogen at its boiling point of 77.3 K is placed in a large room at 21.0C. Energy is transferred from the room to the nitrogen as the liquid nitrogen boils into a gas and then warms to the rooms temperature. (a) Assuming the rooms temperature remains essentially unchanged at 21.0C, calculate the energy transferred from the room to the nitrogen. (b) Estimate the change in entropy of the room. Liquid nitrogen has a latent heat of vaporization of 2.01 105 J/kg.
