How much heat (in Joules) will be needed to vaporize 18.015 grams of liquid water at 100°C?

40659.855 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained the following:

Mass (m) = 18.015g

Heat of vaporisation (ΔHv) = 2257 J/g

Heat (Q) =?

The heat required to vaporise the water can be calculated as follow:

Q = mΔHv

Q = 18.015 x 2257

Q = 40659.855 J

Therefore, the heat required to vaporise the water is 40659.855 J

"among the transition metal elements, manganese and zinc have a slight lowering of electronegativities. the reason behind this is that the nuclear charges of these elements are slightly weaker than the other transition metal elements due to the way their valence electrons are filled up. both manganese and zinc have their valence electrons filled up to the 4th shell with 1 pair of electrons (4s2) completely occupying it. although the electrons in the 3rd shell (3d) are yet to be paired since the outer most shell is filled up, the ability of the nucleus to attract electrons is lessened. hence,   the electronegativity (or the ability to attract electrons) is lessened."
