    mass m is in grams

    step 1 : cool the steam down to 100°C

    E1 = m(100-140)*2.01)

    step 2 : convert the steam into water @ 100°C

    E2 = -m*2260

    step 3 : cool the water down to 60°C

    E3 = m(60-100)*4.19)

    E = E1+E2+E3 = -m(40*2.01+2260+40*4.19) = 2.509*m kjoule

    m= 200gm = 0.2Kg

    S(water) =4185.5 J/kg/K

    L(vaporization) =2260000 J/Kg

    S(steam) =1996 J/ kg/K

    T1= 60C

    T2=140C

    H = mS(water)*(100-T1)+mL+ mS(steam) *(T2-100)

    =5014520.8J

    =501.45 KJ
