Determine the value of ∆H and ∆U for the reversible isothermal evaporation of 90.0g of water at 100°C. Assume that water vapour behave as am ideal gas and heat of eveporation of water is 540cal. MY PROBLEM Only tell me How ∆H is calculated here, because if I know∆H then I can use the equation ∆H = ∆U + nRT In my book it is given that ∆H = 90.0 x 540 = 48600 cal But I want to know that why they have multipled the mass to heat of eveporation to find out ∆H ​​​​​​

MY PROBLEM

Only tell me How ∆H is calculated here, because if I know∆H then I can use the equation

∆H = ∆U + nRT

In my book it is given that

∆H = 90.0 x 540

= 48600 cal

But I want to know that why they have multipled the mass to heat of eveporation to find out ∆H
