With rise in boiling point of water, the latent heat of steam

An experiment takes 10 minutes to raise the temperature of water in a container from 0^(@)C "to" 100^(@)C and another 55 minutes to convert it totally into steam by a heater supplying heat at a uniform rate. Neglecting the specific heat of the container and taking specific heat of water to be 1 "cal//g ^(@)C , the heat of vapourization according to this experiment will come out to be:-

Water at 0^@C was heated until it started to boil and then until it all changed to steam. The time required to heat water from 0^@C to 100^@C is 5 min and the time to change boiling water to steam is 28 minutes. If the flame supplied heat at a constant rate, the specific latent heat of vaporization of water (neglecting heat losses, container etc. is (in J//g ). (specific heat of water s =4.2 J//g )
