Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Among water, methanol and ethanol, compound that has the highest and lowest boiling point should be determined.

Concept introduction:Vapor pressure is known as pressure of vapor that exists in equilibrium with its liquid or solid state. In other words, it is equilibrium pressure of vapor over its liquid or solid state. It depends on temperature of system.

The normal boiling point of cyclohexane is 81 °C. What's the vapor pressure of cyclohexane at 81 °C?
At 20.0 °C, the vapor pressure of cyclohexane, a nonpolar hydrocarbon, is 66.9 torr and that of toluene, a hydrocarbon related to benzene, is 21.1 torr. Calculate the expected vapor pressure of a mixture of cyclohexane and toluene that consists of 124 grams of each liquid. Ptotal= torr
A solution of ethanol (CH,CH,OH) and water that is 90.% ethanol by mass is boiling at 81.9 °C. The vapor is collected and cooled until it condenses to form a new solution. Calculate the percent by mass of ethanol in the new solution. Here's some data you may need: normal vapor pressure density boiling point at 81.9 °C g 0.79 mL ethanol 78. °C 865. torr 100. °C 1.00 mL 389. torr water Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. Note for advanced students: you may assume the solution and vapor above it are ideal. ?
