How much heat must be transferred to 10 kg water taken at the boiling point to convert it into steam?

The vaporization process is described by the formula:

Q = λ * m,

where λ is the specific heat of vaporization of the substance (we find it from the table λ = 2.3 * 10 ^ 6 J / kg), m is the mass.

Q = 10 kg * 2.3 * 10 ^ 6 J / kg = 23 * 10 ^ 6 J.

Answer: in order to convert water into steam, it needs to transfer 23 * 10 ^ 6 J of energy.
