Evaporation of sweat requires energy and thus take excess heat
away from the body. Some of the water that you drink may eventually
be converted into sweat and evaporate. If you drink 500.mL of water
equivalent to 500. g of water)that had been in the refrigerator at
3.8 °C, how much heat is needed to convert all of the 500.g of
water into sweat and then to vapor?For the purpose of solving this
problem, assume that the thermal properties of sweat are the same
as for water. Thus, you are looking for the heat value to
raise the temp of the liquid water from 3.8 °C to 100. °C and then
vaporize that 500.g of water. Your final answer should
be in kcal or MJ
