Gasoline has a less boiling point (72 degree Celsius)
While water has a bigger boiling point (100 degree Celsius)
Latent heat is the measurement of energy needed to change the state of a substance at its melting point or boiling point. The latent heat of fusion of water is the amount of energy needed to change a fixed amount of water from a solid to liquid at 0 degrees C. this works out to be more than 800KJ of heat energy. The latent heat of vaporization of water is the amount of energy needed to change a fixed amount of water from a liquid to a gas at 100 degrees C. this is more than 1200KJ of heat needed to be absorbed.
One calorie is needed to heat 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius
we release the potential energy to heat energy to do work
For what?It requires a heat gain for the water,but a heat loss for whatever the water is in contact with.
You need four things to create a fire. Fuel (wood, paper, gasoline, rubber, etc.). Heat (From electricity, space heaters, lights, etc.). Oxygen (which is obviously everywhere). And Last, you need a chemical reaction. When fuel, heat, and oxygen mix, all that is needed is a chemical reaction between them and you'll have a fire.
The answer is 55,117 kJ.

Heat of vaporization
The energy needed to completely vaporize a mole of a liquid
The amount of time depends on the latent heat of vaporisation and the latent heat of melting.
Heat of vaporization at 100 degrees C is 40.65 kJ/mol. 100g water * 1mol/18.015g = 5.55 mol 40.65*5.55 = 225.6452956 = 226 kJ if three sig figs.
The boiling point of ethanol is 78 C but it can evaporate slowly at just room temperature. You can set it on fire and it will vaporize even more quickly.
The amount of heat absorbed by 1 kg of liquid to vaporize it depends on what that liquid is, (water?), and what the temperature of the liquid is at the start of the process. Obviously, it will take more heat to vaporize 1 kg of liquid that is at 0º than it will to vaporize 1 kg of liquid that is at, say, 30º.

The boiling point is the temperature where a substance BEGINS to vaporize. So all of the water doesn't necessarily need to boil off instantly. To vaporize, molecules of water need to have energy. Only at the boiling point do they have enough energy to boil away, and when they do, they carry this energy with them. This means that a constant supply of heat for a certain period of time is needed for all water in a sample to boil off.
When heat is added to water the molecules move faster and faster until the water reaches it's boiling point and starts to vaporize.
Because heat changes the temperature of the water
