g what mass of water must evaporate from the skin of a 70.0 kg man to cool his body 1.00 C? The heat of vaporization of water at body temp

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer will be "100.7 mL". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Temperature,

ΔT = 1°C

Mass,

m = 70 kg

c = 3.480 J/Kg.K

Amount of released heat will be:

⇒  [tex]Q_{lost}=mc \Delta T[/tex]

On putting the estimated values, we get

             [tex]=70\times 3480 \times 1[/tex]

             [tex]=2.436\times 10^5 \ J[/tex]

Let M will be the amount of evaporated water at the temperature of 37°C.

Required heat will be:

⇒  [tex]Q_{gain}=ML_{v}[/tex]

              [tex]=M(2.42\times 10^6)[/tex]

Now, Lost heat will be equal to the required amount of heat.

⇒                          [tex]Q_{lost}=Q_{gain}[/tex]

                  [tex]2.436\times 10^5=M(2.42\times 10^6)[/tex]

On applying cross-multiplication, we get

                                 [tex]M=\frac{2.436\times 10^5}{2.42\times 10^6}[/tex]

                                      [tex]=0.1007 \ kg \ or \ 100.7 \ g[/tex]

Now,

⇒  [tex]V=\frac{M}{\rho}[/tex]

On putting the estimated values, we get

        [tex]=\frac{1.1007}{1000}[/tex]

       [tex]=100.7 \ mL[/tex]
