In a similar manner, a wave medium is the substance that carries a wave (or disturbance) from one location to another. ... In the case of our slinky wave, the medium through that the wave travels is the slinky coils. In the case of a water wave in the ocean, the medium through which the wave travels is the ocean water.

A medium can be anything that a wave can pass through e.g the medium can be solid objects, air, water, etc.

The molar heat of vaporization of water is 40.7kJ/mol. How much heat must be absorbed to convert 50.0 grams of liquid water at 1
EleoNora [17]
During a phase change the temperature does not change since all of the heat is being absorbed in order to break the intermolecular forces.  Due to that, the formula will not need to have T in it and is actually q=nΔH(v).
n=the number of moles (in this case 2.778mol of water since you divide 50g by 18g/mol).
ΔH(v)=the molar heat of vaporization (in this case 40.7kJ/mol).
q=the heat that must be absorbed
q=2.778mol×40.7kJ/mol
q=113.1kJ
Therefore the water needs to absorb 1.13×10²kJ.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
