To calculate the heat energy released when 5.0 kg of steam at 100°C condenses to form water at 100°C, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Mass of steam (m) = 5.0 kg - Specific latent heat of vaporization of steam (Lv) = 2268 kJ/kg ### Step 2: Convert the latent heat from kJ to J Since we need to express the final answer in SI units (Joules), we convert the latent heat: ...
