Calculate the heat required in kJ for in the process of vaporizing 36.0 g of ethanol at 25°C to the vapor phase at 78°C. Write your answer using 2 significant figures


Date for ethanol: 

T= -114°C

Tb = 78°C

ΔHfus = 5.02 kJ/mol

ΔHvap = 38.56 kJ/mol

CEtOH(s) = 0.97 J/g-K

CEtOH(l)  = 2.3 J/g-K

CEtOH(g)  = 2.03 J/g-K
