Answer:
20.3 kJ of heat is absorbed when 9.00 g of steam condenses to liquid water.
Explanation:
Heat is being consumed during vaporization and heat is being released during condensation.
To vaporize 1 mol of water, 40.66 kJ of heat is being consumed.
Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol
Hence, to vaporize 18.02 g of water , 40.66 kJ of heat is being consumed.
So, to vaporize 9.00 g of water, of heat or 20.3 kJ of heat is being consumed
As condensation is a reverse process of vaporization therefore 20.3 kJ of heat is absorbed when 9.00 g of steam condenses to liquid water.
