Correct Answer

D

Explanation

Latent heat of vaporization = Heat energy / Mass

Given that 10^6 J of heat is required to boil off completely 2 kg of the liquid, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Latent heat of vaporization = 10^6 J / 2 kg

Calculating this, we get:

Latent heat of vaporization = 500,000 J/kg

Therefore, the latent heat of vaporization of the liquid is 500,000 J/kg.
