    The amount of heat, H, needed to boil off certain mass, m, of the substance is given by the equation,

    H = mHv

    where Hv is the heat of vaporization. Manipulating the equation, the mass is calculated by,

    m = H/Hv

    Substituting the known values,

    m = 15000 J / (850 J/g) = 17.65 g

    Thus, the mass of ethyl alcohol is approximately 17.65 g.
