One gram of water of volume 1 c.c becomes 1671 c.c of steam when boiled at a pressure of one atmosphere. The latent heat of vaporisation of water is 540 cal/gr. Find the increase in internal energy (1 at. pressure = 105 N/m2)

a
540 Cal
b
500.24 Cal
c
167 Cal
d
39.66 Cal

detailed solution

Correct option is B

ΔU=Q−WHere W=P×V2−V1=105×(1671−1)×10−8J=167Jand Q = 1x540cal∴ΔU=540−1674.2cal=500.24cal.
