Calculate the increase in internal energy of

10\text{ g}

of water when it is heated from

0^\circ\text{C}

100^\circ\text{C}

and converted into steam at

100\text{ kPa}

. The density of steam is

0.6\text{ kg m}^{-3}

, the specific heat capacity of water is

4200\text{ J kg}^{-1}\,{}^\circ\text{C}^{-1}

, and the latent heat of vaporisation is

2.5\times10^6\text{ J kg}^{-1}
