Question: A piston - cylinder device initially contains 1 0 0 k g of liquid water at T = 8 0 C and P = 1

A piston-cylinder device initially contains 100kg of liquid water at T=80C and P=1bar. The device is isobarically heated, expanding against an external pressure of 1bar, until exactly 12% of the water has vaporized, with the rest remaining in the liquid phase. How much heat was added?
a.2. MJ
b.35.5MJ
c.7.7MJ
d.37.5MJ
e. Insufficient information to solve
