How long take to vaporize all the liquid in the tank


Discuss the below in detail:

Q: A well-insulated rigid tank contains 5 kg of a saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water at l00 kPa. Initially, three-quarters of the mass is in the liquid phase. An electric resistor placed in the tank is connected to a 110-V source and a current of 8 A flows through the resistor when the switch is turned on. Determine how long it will take to vaporize all the liquid in the tank. Also, show the process on a T-v diagram with respect to saturation lines
