According to the question,
Heat spent during the conversion of sample of water at
to steam is,

Normal pressure,

Net work done during the conversion would be given as

Here, 


Now, by the first law of thermodynamics,

where,
is the change in internal energy of the sample.

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get
