Explanation:
The referenced website says "The latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat required to convert a unit mass of a liquid into vapor without a change in temperature." A table on the page says that the heat of vaporization of water is
Reference:

So converting steam of 100c to water of 100c would require removing 2257 kJ of heat from each kg of the steam.
I hope this helps,
