The heat of vaporization of water at 100degc is 540 calg


1 mole of liquid water at 0°C and 1 atm pressure is irreversibly converted into steam at 200°C and 3 atm. Assume the following: (i) liquid water has constant density of 1g/cm^3 and heat capacity Cp = 1 cal/gK. (ii) the heat of vaporization of water at 100°C IS 540 cal/g. (iii) assume that steam (otherwise an ideal gas) has a heat capacity given by

Cp = 8.81 - .0019T + .0000022T^2 (cal/K mol)

Calculate the Q, W, delta E, delta H and delta S for this process
