(15pts) Problem 8. The reason why popcom pops is because it has trapped water. When we place a cup of popcom at 55 C to a pot and pop it we realize that it contains 20 g of water. If this water's temperature is measured we read that to be 80C. How much heat energy was required to pop the popcorn? Heat required to convert I g of ice to 1 g of water = 334.16 Jg Heat required to converti g of water to 1 g of vapor = 2259 g specific heat capacity for solid water (ice) = 2.06 ) g'K! specific heat capacity for liquid water 4.184Jg'K! specific heat capacity for gaseous water (steam) = 2.02 Jg'K'
