Latent heat — UPSC Physics Optional IFoS 2022 Paper I

Liquid {}^4\text{He} has normal boiling point at 4\cdot 2\text{ K}. It is observed that it boils at 1\cdot 2\text{ K} at a pressure of 1\text{ mm of Hg}. Calculate the average latent heat of vaporization of {}^4\text{He} in this temperature range. (\text{Given : Density of Hg} = 13\cdot 6 \times 10^3\text{ kg m}^{-3}).
