Question

specific heat capacity of water at its boiling point is , equal to

1)540cal/g
2) 80cal/g
3) zero
4) infinity ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The boiling point of a liquid is defined as the temperature at which the vapour pressure of the liquid becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure. Therefore, at boiling point, specific heat of a liquid is equal to the specific heat of vaporization of that liquid
