B4 The specific latent heat of vaporization of a
particular liquid is 2.0 x 105 Jkg, its relative
molecular mass is 30 and its coordination
number is 10. Ou the basis of this data, and
given that the Avogadro constant 6 x
10" mol-, obtain a value for the binding
energy of a pair of (adjacent) molecules of the
liquid.
On freezing, the coordination number in-
creases to 12. Estimate the specific latent
heat of fusion.
