Homework Statement


Given: latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.26 × 106 J/kg .
Nine gram of water changes from liquid to vapor at a pressure of one atmosphere. In the process, the volume changes from 0.5 cm3 to 2165 cm3.
Find the work done. Answer in units of J.

Find the increase in internal energy of the water.
Answer in units of J


Homework Equations



Latent Heat=2.26x10^6(kg)
this doesn't work

W=change in volume * pressure

The Attempt at a Solution


i have plugged in the values for the first section and they do not work. Changing to pascals/kg aren't right.
