Phase changes ofter-occur at temperatures other than the temperature for which the latent heat
is tabulated. When faced with this situation, you must select hypothetical process path that
permits the available data to be used.
Solution An energy balance yields
Suppose, for example, that a substance is to be vaporized isothermally at 130°C but the only
available value of the heat of vaporization is at 80°C. A process path from the liquid al 130°C to the
yaper at the same temperature must then be chosen that includes an isothermal vaporization step at
80°C: specifically, cool the liquid from 130°C to 80°C, vaporize the liquid at 80°C, and then heat
the vapor back to 130°C. Summing the changes in enthalpy for each of these steps yields the
change in enthalpy for the given process. (By definition, the calculated value is the latent heat of
vaporization at 130°C.)
Vaporization and Heating
One hundred g-moles per hour of liquid n-hexane at 25°C and 7 bar is vaporized and heated to 300°C at
constant pressure. Neglecting the effect of pressure on enthalpy, estimate the rate at which heat must be
supplied.

ῥ =ΔΗ (W, = ΔÉp = 0, ΔΕk = 0)
Therefore an evaluation of AH will yield the desired value of Q.
From the Antoine equation (Table B.4) the APEX function Antoine hexame, 5250), the
temperature at which the vapor pressure of n-hexafe is 7 bar (5250 mm Hg) is 146°C, and this is therefore the
temperature at which the vaporization actually occurs. However, Table B. lists a value of AH, at the normal
boiling point of n-hexane,
AH, = 28.85 kJ/mol at 69°C
We must therefore find a path that takes hexane from a liquid to a vapor at 69°C, rather than at the true
vaporization temperature of 146°C.
As noted previously, the change in enthalpy associated with a process may be determined from any
convenient path as long as the initial and final points of the chosen path correspond to those of the process.
The diagram shown on the following page illustrates several possible paths from liquid hexane at 25°C to
hexane vapor at 300°C.
