Question

The latent heat of vaporization of steam is more than that of the boiling water. Explain

Answer 1

Explanation:

THE LATENT HEAT OF STEAM IS HIGHER THAN OF THE WATER AT SAME TEMPRATURE THIS IS BECAUSE THE PARTICLE OF THE STEAM HAVE A GREATER K.E THAN WATER SO THEY MOVE WITH A GREATER SPEED

THIS PROVES THAT THE LATENT HEAT OF STEAM IS HIGHER THAN OF THE WATER

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