(a) Define the boiling point of a liquid.

(b) With the aid of a sketch diagram, describe an experiment to determine the boiling point of a small quantity of a Iiquid

(c) A piece of copper of mass 300 g at a temperature of 950°C is quickly transferred into a vessel of negligible thermal capacity containing 250 g of water at 25°C. If the final steady temperature of the mixture is 100°C, calculate the mass of water that will boil away. Especific heat capacity of copper = 4.0 x 10\(^2\) J kg\(^{-1}\)K\(^{-1}\)  specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 x 10\(^{3}\) J kg\(^{-1}\)K\(^{-1}\) specific latent heat of vaporization of steam = 2.26 x 10\(^6\)J kg\(^{-1}\)
