Video transcript

Hi everyone sir. Ask consider the compounds metal acetate and acetone and as the temperature increases, their order of volatility also changes for this to occur, we need to determine the quantity that must be different from method acetone and acetone. For this. We're gonna look at the classes clapper an equation. This is L. N. Of the second vapor pressure by by the first favorite pressure equal to negative the entropy of vaporization abide by the r gas constant. That was one over the second temperature in kelvin -1 over the first temperature in Kelvin. And we can also write this as Ln eagle two negative dot H. The ap What about art Times one over T pussy. And this is why equals M. X plus B. In linear form. And since the order of the volatility changes with temperature, the plots for acetone and methyl acetate is going to cross at the same temperature at some point have a slope. The entropy of vaporization in the white intercept must be different. Thanks for watching my video and I hope it was helpful

Textbook Question

Suppose the vapor pressure of a substance is measured at two different temperatures. (a) By using the Clausius–Clapeyron equation (Equation 11.1) derive the following relationship between the vapor pressures, P1 and P2, and the absolute temperatures at which they were measured, T1 and T2: (b) Gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons, a component of which is octane (CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3). Octane has a vapor pressure of 13.95 torr at 25 °C and a vapor pressure of 144.78 torr at 75 °C. Use these data and the equation in part (a) to calculate the heat of vaporization of octane. (c) By using the equation in part (a) and the data given in part (b), calculate the normal boiling point of octane. Compare your answer to the one you obtained from Exercise 11.81. (d) Calculate the vapor pressure of octane at - 30 °C.
