Thermodynamics and Thermochemistry 2 Question 10

10. $\Delta H_{\text {vap }}=30 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$ and $\Delta S_{\text {vap }}=75 \mathrm{Jmol}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}$. Find the temperature of vapour, at one atmosphere

$(2004,1 \mathrm{M})$

(a) $400 \mathrm{~K}$

(b) $350 \mathrm{~K}$

(c) $298 \mathrm{~K}$

(d) $250 \mathrm{~K}$

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. $T=\frac{\Delta H_{\text {vap }}}{\Delta S_{\text {vap }}}=\frac{30,000}{75}=400 \mathrm{~K}$
