1 kg of water at 373 K is converted into steam at same temperature. Volume of 1 cm" of water becomes1671 cm on boiling. What is the change in the internal energy of the system if the latent heat of vaporisationof water is 5.4 x 105 cal kg-l?Solution

The change in the internal energy of the system is 2098.74 J
Explanation:
By using the first law of thermodynamics.
ΔQ = ΔU + ΔW
So, change in internal energy will be
ΔU = ΔQ - ΔW
Here,
ΔQ = mL =1g x 540Cal/g = 540 Cal
ΔU = change in internal energy (to be calculated)
ΔW = change in work done
So, ΔW = pΔV
Where
ΔV = 1671cm3 - 1cm3 = 1670cm3 = 1670 x 10-6 m3
p = hρg = 0.76 x 13600 x 9.8 ~ 101293 N/m2
ΔW = 101293 x 1670x10-6 = 169.16J
ΔW = 169.16 / 4.2 = 40.3 Cal
Thus, we have
ΔU = 540 Cal - 40.3 Cal
ΔU = 499.7 Cal = 2098.74 J
