Question
Chapter 11, Problem 57QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The statements “The metals are good conductors of heat and electricity” and “The conductivity decreases as there is an increase in the temperature” are to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Metals are the substances, which conduct heat and electricity.
They are lustrous, sonorous, malleable, and ductile. For example, iron, aluminum, potassium, copper, zinc, and others.
Metals are a good conductor of electricity due to the presence of free electrons.
Conductors are the substances, which allow the electricity to pass through them.

Some of the water that you drink may eventually be converted into sweat and evaporate. If you drink a 20-ounce bottle of water (590g) that had been in the refrigerator at 3.8 °C, how much heat is needed to convert all of that water into sweat and then to vapor?
