The
Concept Introduction:
Molecules of liquid and solid are held together by a force of attraction. And the value of enthalpy of vaporization and sublimation reflects the magnitude of force between the molecules. Greater the value of
If a molecule has hydrogen bonds, it increases it
Answer to Problem 15.58P
The
Explanation of Solution
As per Trouton’s rule, compounds that don’t have strong molecular interactions like hydrogen bonding have molar enthalpy of vaporization as follows:
Here,
Substitute
Substitute
Substitute
The formula to calculate the percentage error in
Substitute
Substitute
Substitute
Water molecule has hydrogen bonding so the error is maximum as Trouton’s rule can not be applied to water molecule.
