heat of vaporization has to be given since youre changing states from boiling water -> steam -> to 126C
specific heat would be used to calculate changes in temperature when the water is still in the same state, that is, steam
my assignment is a take home quiz and all the problem says is How much heat (in kJ) is needed to convert 866g of water at 10.0C to steam at 126C
