Best Answer

It depends on the temperature of the water that you begin with.

But lets say that you start with 100 Kg of water at 100'C.

the heat of vapourization of water is 2260 J /g or 2,260,000 J/Kg

Since we have 100Kg it would require 226,000,000 J

converting Joules into Kilowatt hours gives

226 MegaJoules

as 1 kilowatt hour is equal to 3.6 megajoules

226/3.6 =62.77 kilowatt hours

How does how fossil fuels produce electricity or fuel?

Fossil fuels produce electricity when they are burned to make steam or smoke which turns generators to make electricity. But we must be careful that we are not burning too much fossil fuels so that we will run out one day. :)


How much electricity does coal fired power plant produce?

A coal fired station burns coal to produce heat. The heat boils water to produce high pressure and temperature steam. The steam expands in a turbine to rotate the shaft. The turbines rotation drives a generator. The generator produces electricity which is sent out to the consumers. . I hope this helped, believe me i am a proffesional scientist

How is the steam used to produce electricity?

A 300 grams of water takes about 90 seconds to boil in a 2 kW kettle, so that is 2000 watts x 90 seconds which is 180,000 Joules of energy. But to convert that water completely into steam requires an extra 300x550x4.2 Joules, which is nearly 700,000 Joules. So converting it to steam takes 4-5 times as much energy as boiling it. That is why it takes a while for a kettle to boil dry.


Is an electrical cord a conductor of heat?

The primary means of producing electricity from heat involves heating water until it becomes steam, this steam is kept under pressure so that its volume remains the same while it continues to gain the energy from the heat. Once the steam has absorbed as much energy as we can give it, we allow it to expand into pipes, releasing the energy we put in as it does. That heat energy is transfered to rotational motion as the steam expands and pushes the blades of a turbine. The axle of the turbine is in turn connected to a generator which turns rotational motion into electricity. weather the heat is generated by nuclear reactions, coal, or whatever else you like is irrelevant.

What does a nuclear power plant need to produce electricity?

Through machinesMy answer is short and simple, although not as much as the first one, lol. Nuclear power plants create electricity much the same as any other power plant the difference is the fuel used. The nuclear fission is the energy used to heat water that creates steam to turn a turbine which generates electricity.
