FAQ

What is the Enthalpy of Evaporation?
Enthalpy of evaporation is the amount of energy (enthalpy) that must be added to a liquid substance to transform a quantity of that substance into a gas. Enthalpy of Evaporation is usually measured using the Joule per Kilogram K for Specific Entropy. Note that the value of Enthalpy of Evaporation is always negative.
Can the Enthalpy of Evaporation be negative?
Yes, the Enthalpy of Evaporation, measured in Specific Entropy can be negative.
What unit is used to measure Enthalpy of Evaporation?
Enthalpy of Evaporation is usually measured using the Joule per Kilogram K[J/kg*K] for Specific Entropy. Calorie per Gram per Celcius[J/kg*K], Joule per Kilogram per Celcius[J/kg*K], Kilojoule per Kilogram per Celcius[J/kg*K] are the few other units in which Enthalpy of Evaporation can be measured.
