Answer to Problem 18.48QP
Trouton's rule is not obeyed by water and ethanol due to the high entropy of vaporization.
Explanation of Solution
To record the given data
To verify Trouton's rule for ethanol
Trouton's rule can be verified by plugging in the values of
Since, the value is greater than
To verify Trouton's rule for water
Trouton's rule can be verified by plugging in the values of
Since the value is greater than
To explain the reason for the deviation from hydrogen bond in case of water and ethanol.
For water and ethanol there exist strong hydrogen bonding attraction in the liquid state. Hydrogen bonding interaction decreases the entropy in the system. In gaseous state the hydrogen bonding interaction becomes weaker and the molecules will have more randomness in the system. The entropy of vaporization will be high. This is the reason why water and ethanol is showing larger deviation from Trouton's rule.
