How much heat is evolved in converting 1.00 mol of steam at 140.0 ∘c to ice at -55.0 ∘c? the heat capacity of steam is 2.01 j/(g⋅∘c) and of ice is 2.09 j/(g⋅∘c)?

- 57.7 kJ of heat is evolved.

Solution:- The conversion of 140 degree C steam to -55 degree C ice takes place in steps as:

First step:- Boiling point of water is 100 degree C, so first of all 140 degree C steam changes to 100 degree C steam. The heat for this step is calculated by using the formula,

where, q is the heat energy, m is mass in grams, c is heat capacity in and is change in temperature.

For first step, = 100 - 140 = -40 degree C

We have 1.00 mol that is 18.0 grams of steam and it's heat capacity is 2.01.

Let's calculate q for this step:

= -1447.2 J

Second step:- In second step, 100 degree C steam changes to 100 degree C water. It's a phase change step. The equation used for this step is,

where, is the enthalpy of vaporization. It's value is 2260 J per gram.

Heat is released in this step as steam to water conversion is exothermic.

= 40680 J

Since heat is released for steam to water conversion, the value of q for this second step is -40680 J.

Third step:- 100 degree C water is converted to 0 degree C water as 0 degree C is the melting point or freezing point for water. heat capacity for water is 4.18. Temperature change for this step is, = 0 - 100 = -100

= -7524 J

Fourth step:- 0 degree C water is converted to 0 degree C ice. Enthalpy of fusion for ice is 333.55 J per g. let's calculate the q for this step as:

= 18.0(333.55)

= 6003.9 J

Since the heat is released, the energy for this step is also negative and it is -6003.9 J.

Fifth step:- 0 degree C ice is converted to -55.0 degree C.

= -55.0 - 0 = -55.0

= -2069.1 J

Total heat for the whole process is the sum of q values of all the five steps.

q=-1447.2J+(-40680J)+(-7524J)+(-6003.9J)+(-2069.1J)

q = -57724.2 J or -57.7 kJ

Negative sign indicates the heat is released.

So, 57.7 kJ of heat is released when 1.00 mol of 140.0 degree C of steam is converted to -55.0 degree C of ice.
