Question

Ice at 0 degree Celsius is converted into steam at 100 degree Celsius. State the isothermal changes in this process.?

Answer 1

When Ice at 0 °C is converted into steam at 100°C, The various changes that are taking place are explained as below step by step:

1) Ice at 0°C is converted to water at 0°C. The latent heat is given by,

  Latent heat = mLf

2) Water at 0°C is converted to water at 100 °C. The heat used in this process is given by,

H = msΔT

3) Water at 100 °C is converted to steam at 100 °C. The latent heat used in this process is given by,

H = mLv
