Answer:

69.69 g

Explanation:

Evaporation of water will take out latent heat of vaporization.  Let the mass of water be m and latent heat of vaporization of water be 2260000 J per kg

Heat taken up by evaporating water

= 2260000 x m J

Heat lost by body

= mass x specific heat of body x drop in temperature

60 x 3500 x .750  ( specific heat of human body is 3.5 kJ/kg.k)

= 157500 J

Heat loss = heat gain

2260000 m= 157500

m = .06969 kg

= 69.69 g
