Question:

Using the heats of vaporization for {eq}H_2O \Delta H_{vap} \text{ at } 25^{\circ}C = 44.02 kJ/mol, \Delta H_{vap} \text{ at } 100^{\circ}C = 40.67 kJ/mol, {/eq} calculate the entropy change for the vaporization of water at {eq}25^{\circ}C {/eq} and at {eq}100^{\circ}C. {/eq}

Vaporization:

The process of converting liquid molecules of a substance to gaseous molecules is referred to as the evaporation or vaporization process. The amount of heat needed to be absorbed by a liquid substance to evaporate is defined by the heat of vaporization, {eq}\rm \Delta H_{vap} {/eq}. The change in the level of disorderedness of the substance's molecules, on the other hand, is defined by the entropy change of vaporization of the substance, {eq}\rm \Delta S_{vap} {/eq}.
