Textbook Question
Trouton's rule says that the ratio of the molar heat of vaporization of a liquid to its normal boiling point (in kelvin) is approximately the same for all liquids: ∆Hvap/Tbp ≈ 88 J/(K*mol) (b) Explain why liquids tend to have the same value of ∆Hvap/Tbp.

Textbook Question
A mixture of 14.0 g of N2 and 3.024 g of H2 in a 5.00 L container is heated to 400 °C. Use the data in Appendix B to calculate the molar concentrations of N2, H2, and NH3 at equilibrium. Assume that ∆H° and ∆S° are independent of temperature, and remember that the standard state of a gas is defined in terms of pressure.
