Question

give reasons why latent heat of vaporization of steam is more than that of boiling water​

Answer 1

Answer:

The heat energy which is supplied to change the physical state of matter is called latent heat.

but boiling of water is another process in which we heat the water to make it warm.

Answer 2

Answer:

The Latent Heat of steam is higher than of water at the same temperature because the particles of steam move with a greater speed than of water.

This proves that the latent heat of steam is higher than that of water. 

THIS ALSO SHOWS US THAT WE CAN GET MORE SEVERE BURNS THAN STEAM AS COMPARED TO THE WATER AT THE SAME TEMPERATURE
