Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 97E
The molar heat of fusion of sodium metal is 2.60 kJ/mol, whereas its heat of vaporization is 97.0 kJ/mol.
a. Why is the heat of vaporization so much larger than the heat of fusion?
b. What quantity of heat would be needed to melt 1.00 g sodium at its normal melting point?
c. What quantity of heat would be needed to vaporize 1.00 g sodium at its normal boiling point?
d. What quantity of heat would be evolved if 1.00 g sodium vapor condensed at its normal boiling point?

6. A solution (0.0004 M) of Fe(S2CNEt2)3 (see the structural drawing below) in chloroform
has absorption bands at:
350 nm (absorbance A = 2.34);
514 nm(absorbance A = 0.0532);
Calculate the molar absorptivity values for these bands. Comment
on their possible nature (charge transfer transitions or d-d
S
N-
transitions?).
