KillGorack / Physics 2010 / 125 g of dry ice (solid CO2 ) is dropped into a beaker containing 500 g of 66°C water. The dry ice converts directly to gas, leaving the solution. When the dry ice is gone, the final temperature of the water is 29°C. What is the heat of vaporization of solid CO2 ? (cwater = 1.00 cal/g×°C)

The following physics responses are provided by a student and, as such, should be considered in that context. While every effort is made for accuracy, absolute correctness cannot be fully guaranteed.

Question 125 g of dry ice (solid CO2 ) is dropped into a beaker containing 500 g of 66°C water. The dry ice converts directly to gas, leaving the solution. When the dry ice is gone, the final temperature of the water is 29°C. What is the heat of vaporization of solid CO2 ? (cwater = 1.00 cal/g×°C)
Answer 148 cal/g
