The amount of energy it takes to convert 1.0 g of water to a gaseous state is called the heat of vaporization We can find how much energy it will take to evaporate liquid water with this equation Q = mΔH° vap Notice there is no symbol for temperature because none of the energy required (Q) is being used to change the temperature during a state change
