  1. A 11.3×105 J
  2. B 11.3×106 J
  3. C 22.6×106 J
  4. D 22.6×107 J
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 22.6×107 J

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given: Latent heat of vaporization Lv=22.6×105 J kg-1 Mass of water, m=100 kg and temperature of vapour T=100 °C. The relation of heat and latent heat of vaporization is given as,Q=mLv Q=100×22.6×105=22.6×107 J
