1 kg of water at 100°C is converted into steam at 100°C by boiling at atmospheric pressure. The volume of water changes from 1.00×10-3 m3 as a liquid to 1.671 m3 as steam. The change in internal energy of the system during the process will be (Given latent heat of vaporisation =2257 kJ/kg, Atmospheric pressure =1×105 Pa
  1. -2426 kJ
  2. +2090 kJ
  3. -2090 kJ
  4. +2476 kJ

Solution

The work to be done in the process is given by

dW=PdV=1×105 Pa×(1.671-0.001) m3=1.670×105 J

The change in heat energy during the vaporisation process can be calculated as follows-

ΔQsupplied =2257×1×103 J=22.57×105 J

Hence, the change in internal energy in the process is given by

ΔU=ΔQsupplied-ΔW=(22.57-1.67)×105 J=20.9×105 J=2090 kJ
