(e)

Answer to Problem 104E
Normal melting point = 115.21°C
Normal boiling point = 444.6°C
Explanation of Solution
In the given phase diagram, there are four states of sulfur; monoclinic, rhombic, liquid and gaseous state of sulfur. Boiling point is the temperature at which liquid and gaseous state remain in equilibrium at 1 atm pressure. According to given phase diagram, the normal boiling point of sulfur must be 444.6°C. The melting point of substance is the temperature at which solid melts to liquid state which is 115.21 °C for sulfur.

(f)

Answer to Problem 104E
Rhombic sulfur is the densest phase of sulfur.
Explanation of Solution
In the given phase diagram, there are four states of sulfur; monoclinic, rhombic, liquid and gaseous state of sulfur. The Rhombic phase of sulfur is most dense phase of it compare to monoclinic and solid. This is because the rhombic-monoclinic equilibrium line has a positive slope therefore with increase in the temperature, the rhombic phase changes to monoclinic.
