How much heat energy is required to convert 39.6 g of solid ethanol at -114.5 °C to gaseous ethanol at 147.2 °C? The molar heat of fusion of ethanol is 4.60 kJ/mol, and its molar heat of vaporization is 38.56 kJ/mol. Ethanol has a normal melting point of -114.5 °C and a normal boiling point of 78.4 °C. The specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol is 2.45 J/g °C, and that of gaseous ethanol is 1.43 J/g. °C.

The phase diagram for water over a relative narrow pressure and temperature range is given in Figure 9.19. A phase diagram over a considerably wider range of temperature and pressure (kbar) is given nearby. This phase diagram illustrates the polymorphism of ice, the existence of a solid in more than one form. In this case, Roman numerals are used to designate each polymorphic form. For example, Ice I, ordinary ice, is the form that exists under ordinary pressures. The other forms exist only at higher pressures, in some cases extremely high pressure such as Ice VII and Ice VIII. Using the phase diagram, give the approximate P and T conditions at the triple point for Ice III, Ice V, and liquid water. Determine the approximate temperature and pressure for the triple point for Ices VI, VII, and VIII. What is anomalously different about the fusion curves for Ice VI and Ice VII compared to that of Ice I? What phases exist at 8 kbar and 20 °C? At a constant temperature of −10 °C, start at 3 kbar and increase the pressure to 7 kbar. Identify all the phase changes that occur sequentially as these conditions change. Explain why there is no triple point for the combination of Ice VII, Ice VIII, and liquid water.
