Step-by-step solution

3 steps

To determine the quantity of water evaporated, we need to calculate the total heat transferred through the aluminum pan and then use the latent heat of vaporization.

Given values:

  • Thickness of aluminum pan (LL) = 15 mm=15×10−3 m=0.015 m15 \text{ mm} = 15 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m} = 0.015 \text{ m}
  • Heating surface area (AA) = 2.5 mm2=2.5×(10−3 m)2=2.5×10−6 m22.5 \text{ mm}^2 = 2.5 \times (10^{-3} \text{ m})^2 = 2.5 \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}^2
  • Temperature difference (ΔT\Delta T) = 75∘C=75 K75^\circ\text{C} = 75 \text{ K}
  • Time (tt) = 5 minutes=5×60 s=300 s5 \text{ minutes} = 5 \times 60 \text{ s} = 300 \text{ s}
  • Thermal conductivity of aluminum (KAlK_{Al}) = 237 Wm−1K−1237 \text{ Wm}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}
  • Latent heat of vaporization of water (LwL_w) = 2.2×106 Jkg−12.2 \times 10^6 \text{ Jkg}^{-1} (assuming the unit JK−1\text{JK}^{-1} in the question is a typo and should be Jkg−1\text{Jkg}^{-1})
  1. Calculate the rate of heat transfer (QrateQ_{rate}) through the aluminum pan using the formula for conduction.

    Qrate=KAlAΔTLQ_{rate} = \frac{K_{Al} A \Delta T}{L} Qrate=237 Wm−1K−1×2.5×10−6 m2×75 K0.015 mQ_{rate} = \frac{237 \text{ Wm}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1} \times 2.5 \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}^2 \times 75 \text{ K}}{0.015 \text{ m}} Qrate=44437.5×10−60.015 WQ_{rate} = \frac{44437.5 \times 10^{-6}}{0.015} \text{ W} Qrate=2.9625 WQ_{rate} = 2.9625 \text{ W}
  2. Calculate the total heat transferred (QtotalQ_{total}) in 5 minutes.

    Qtotal=Qrate×tQ_{total} = Q_{rate} \times t Qtotal=2.9625 W×300 sQ_{total} = 2.9625 \text{ W} \times 300 \text{ s} Qtotal=888.75 JQ_{total} = 888.75 \text{ J}
  3. Calculate the mass of water evaporated (mm) using the total heat transferred and the latent heat of vaporization.

    Qtotal=m×LwQ_{total} = m \times L_w m=QtotalLwm = \frac{Q_{total}}{L_w} m=888.75 J2.2×106 Jkg−1m = \frac{888.75 \text{ J}}{2.2 \times 10^6 \text{ Jkg}^{-1}} m=403.977...×10−6 kgm = 403.977... \times 10^{-6} \text{ kg} m≈0.000404 kgm \approx 0.000404 \text{ kg}

    Rounding to four decimal places, the mass of water evaporated is approximately 0.0004 kg0.0004 \text{ kg}.

    The final answer is A. 0.0004Kg\text{A. } 0.0004\text{Kg}.
