Calculating the amount of water reacted is simple with a scale. As long as the mass of the water before evaporation is measured, one can find the amount of water evaporated simply by measuring the mass of the water after evaporation and taking the difference of the mass. To convert this to volume, simply divide the mass by the density of water (typically 1g/cm3).

To determine the heat of vaporization you must first determine the amount of heat the substance gave off to water by multiplying the mass of water by the change in temperature and the specific heat capacity of water. You need to divide this number by the number of moles of the unknown substance.

I would presume the question is about cause of energy demand on phase change.

Liquid content as liquid because of interaction force between molecules (dipole, H-bond, van der Waals etc) it could calculate the heat of vaporization by the amount of energy to dissociate these bonding.

For normal engineering: Calculation of latent heat usually done via fitting equation not from intermolecular force.

What step changes liquid water to water vapor?

Vaporization is the change of liquid water to water vapor. Vaporization requires addition of the latent heat of vaporization to liquid water. The latent heat of vaporization supplies the liquid water molecules with enough energy to become vapor molecules. The latent heat of vaporization at 1.0 atmosphere pressure is about 1000 Btu per lbm ( 2260 kJ per kg ).

How your body cooled when you perspire?

Perspiration coats the outside of the skin with moisture (water). The water evaporates. Evaporation requires heat to be absorbed by the water (the latent heat of vaporization). Heat is removed from the body surface to provide the water with the latent heat of vaporization.

What does L mean in the equation Heat equals mL?

L can either mean the latent heat of vaporization or condensation. The latent heat of vaporization is the energy required to completely turn 1 kilogram of a liquid into a gas at its boiling point. The latent heat of condensation is the energy required to completely turn 1 kilogram of a solid into a liquid at its melting point.
