Interpretation:
The vapor pressure of benzene at
Concept introduction:
The relationship between vapor pressure and temperature is given by Clausius- Clapeyron equation as:
Here,
To convert a temperature from degree Celsius to Kelvin, the expression is as follows:
Here,
To convert heat from kilo joule per mole to joule per mole, the expression is as follows:
Answer to Problem 32QP
Solution:
Explanation of Solution
Given information: The vapour pressure of benzene is
The temperatures of benzene are
The molar heat of vaporization,
The gas constant,
Convert the temperature in Kelvin:
Convert the heat in joule per mole as follows:
Now, calculate
Take antilogarithm on both the sides as follows:
Rearrange the above expression to obtain the vapor pressure as follows:
The vapour pressure of benzene at
