how many calories are required to completely vaporize 500 grams of water

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is the temperature then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have no idea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hum. Let's see.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you think that the problem asks the energy to vaporize water when it is 100 degrees C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

probaly it is.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then \[q=mH _{v}\] q is the energy we need. m is the mass of water. Hv is the heat of vaporization of water, which is a constant. Hv = 2257 J/g = 540 cal/g

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're very welcome.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is the difference between acids and bases

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In an acidic solution, we get lots of H+ ions. In a basic solution, we get lots of OH- ions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what does it mean by that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, sorry. I think you haven't learned about ions yet. Let see if we can figure it out an easier way to get it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im learning about it now thats why im asking question about it so much to you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, it is important to understand it clearly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know it is to understand it clearly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, usually acids are written like this H[group]. For example HCl, H2SO4, H2CO3, etc.
