Rock doesn't boil as such, ie turn from a liquid to a gas, but it does melt from a solid into a liquid. Depending on the type of rock and it's composition this can be anywhere between 600 and 1600 degrees centigrade

What are two types of vaporization?

The two main types of vaporization are evaporation, which occurs at the surface of a liquid at any temperature, and boiling, which occurs throughout the bulk of a liquid at a specific temperature called the boiling point.


What does vaporization include?

Vaporization means that the particles eg water molecules must have enough energy to break the liquid particle to particle bonds and form a gas particle. This happens at any temperature but happens for all molecules at the boiling point of the liquid. Some substances do not spontaneously go through a liquid phase but actually form a gas from the solid phase. Solid directly to gas is called sublimation but it is, in effect, a type of vaporization.


Calculate the entropy of vaporization per mole of ethanol Given enthalpy change is 109.8 JK-1 mol-1 and boiling point of ethanol is 78.50C?

OK.With entalpy od vaporization and temperature of vaporization is very easy to calculate entropy of vaporization of etanol.So the equation to calculate this is:Delta_S=-Delta_H/TbWhere:Delta_S= Entropy of vaporizationDelta_H=Entalpy of vaporizationTb= Normal Boiling point temperatureSo the Delta_S become:Delta_S=-(-109000.8)/(78.5+273)Delta_S=310.1 J.mol-1.K-1


What is the Latent heat of vaporization for ethyl acetate?

The latent heat of vaporization for ethyl acetate is approximately 28.44 kJ/mol. This is the amount of energy required to convert one mole of liquid ethyl acetate into vapor at its boiling point.


The temperature at which water condenses is called what?

The vaporization temperature (liquid to gas) is the same temperature as the condensation temperature (gas to liquid). In advanced engineering this may not be technically true however, since the condensation temperature can be significantly lower than the vaporization temperature in very controlled circumstances (subcooled gases, subcooled liquids).

Another word for evaporation?

Evaporation is vaporization under the boiling point.


What is the relationship between the heat of vaporization and boiling point of a substance?

The heat of vaporization is the amount of energy needed to change a substance from a liquid to a gas at its boiling point. The higher the heat of vaporization, the higher the boiling point of the substance.


What is vaporization point of steel?

The vaporization point of steel is approximately 2750°C (4982°F). At this temperature, steel will turn into vapor.


What is waters vaporization point?

The vaporization point of water, also known as its boiling point, is 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) at standard atmospheric pressure. At this temperature, water changes from a liquid to a gas.


Which letter represents where vaporization and condensation occur?

The letter "A" typically represents where vaporization and condensation occur on a phase diagram. Vaporization occurs in the gas region above the boiling point, while condensation occurs in the liquid region below the boiling point.


What 2 ways does it vaporization occur?

Vaporization occurs through boiling, where a substance changes from a liquid to a gas at its boiling point, or through evaporation, where a substance changes from a liquid to a gas at below its boiling point, usually at the surface.


Is the heat of vaporization the same as the boiling point?

No, the heat of vaporization is the amount of energy required to change a substance from a liquid to a gas, while the boiling point is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas.


Use the data to determine the heat of vaporization of nitrogen?

To determine the heat of vaporization of nitrogen, you would need the enthalpy of vaporization data for nitrogen. This value is typically around 5.57 kJ/mol at its boiling point of -195.79°C. By knowing the enthalpy of vaporization and the conditions at which nitrogen is boiling, you can calculate the heat of vaporization.


How does vaporization relate to evaporation and boiling.?

Vaporization occur at the boiling point and from the total volume of the liquid.Evaporation occur at any temperature but only from the surface of the liquid.


What is a fast vaporization called in science?

A fast vaporization in science is called "boiling." This is when a liquid reaches its boiling point and turns into vapor rapidly.


What happens when a liquid is heated until its vaporization point?

It boils until it evaporates.


What happen in vaporization and evaporation?

In vaporization, a liquid is heated to its boiling point and changes into vapor (gas) throughout the entire substance. Evaporation, on the other hand, is a process where molecules at the surface of a liquid escape as vapor without reaching the boiling point. Both processes involve a phase change from liquid to gas, but vaporization occurs throughout the liquid, while evaporation occurs only at the surface.
