What happen in the boiling water on the kettle?

Materials can come in three phases, depending on physical conditions. They are gas, liquid, and solid. If you boil a kettle of water, you are first heating up the liquid water inside the kettle. But then at boiling temperature (which is about 100 deg C or 212 deg F) the liquid in the kettle starts to turn into gas, which we call steam. As a gas, that steam rises to the surface and that's when you start to see the bubbles we call boiling. So when we "boil a kettle" we are creating steam that creates the boiling bubbles.


What will happen to the water if you put a cup of water in a kettle and place it in the flame?

The water will warm until it reaches the same temperature as the flame. If the flame is hot enough, the water will eventually boil when it reaches 100ºC, and will then be converted to steam (water vapor).


Is a steam from a kettle reversible?

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.


What is the definition of the term 'latent heat'?

Latent heat is the amount of energy that is needed to change the state of matter. Either from a solid to a liquid, from a liquid to gas or vice versa. For example if you boil a kettle of water, energy or latent heat is added to the water from the element within the kettle. The water will heat up and eventually turn to steam.
