Problem M5 .Benzene has a vapor pressure of 58.7 mm Hg al 15°C and a normal boiling point of 80.10°C. Estimate the vapor pressure at 45°C using (a, the Antoine equation and constants from Table B.4; (b, the Clausius-Clapeyron equation and the two given data points and (c, linear interpolation between the two given points; taking the first estimate to be correct, calculate the percentage associated with the second and third est nates.
