The temperature dependence of the vapor pressure of solid sulfur dioxide can be approximated by log(p) = 10.5916 – 1871.2/T, with p in Torr and T in K. The temperature dependence of the vapor pressure for liquid sulfur dioxide is given by log(p) = 8.3186 – 1425.7/T. Determine the temperature and pressure at the triple point.
