The vaporization of methanol CH₃OH(l) ⇌ CH₃OH(g) is an endothermic process in which ∆Hvap = 37.4 kJ/mol and in which entropy increases, ∆Svap = 111 J/mol・K. Calculate the boiling point of methanol (in °C) on a mountaintop where the atmospheric pressure is 345 torr. (Assume ∆H° and ∆S° do not change appreciably with temperature)
