I think you meant to use the word enthalpy. Enthalpy refers to the flow of heat, while entropy means the "randomness" of a system.

Because The water is already at its boiling point (100o C), it doesn't need to be heated any more to start boiling. To find out how much energy it takes, you'll need to look up the molar heat of vaporization. Simply put, this is the amount of energy it takes to boil one mol of a substance. Water's molar heat of vaporization is 40.2 kJ/mol.

Now, all we need to do is multiply:

1.8mol * 40.2kJ/mol = 72kJ

(Note: The 1 atm is important because that is the pressure at which water's boiling point is 100oC. If there was any less pressure, it would have already boiled. If there was more pressure, it would have to heat up to the new boiling point, then use 72kJ to boil.)

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


A substance has a temperature change from 20 degrees celsius to 45 degrees celsius. This corresponds to what temperature change in Fahrenheit degrees?

20 degrees Celsius is 68 degrees Fahrenheit. 45 degrees Celsius is 113 degrees Fahrenheit. So 25 degrees change Celsius = 25 x 1.8 = 45 degrees Fahrenheit. 1 degree change in Celsius is equivalent to 1.8 degrees change in Fahrenheit.
