Chapter 6, Problem 6.11P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The vapor pressure of chlorobenzene should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Antoine equation

Antoine equations describe the relationshipbetween vapor pressure and temperature for pure components. This is a semi-empirical relationship.

Clausius-Clapeyron equation

If the vapor pressure is known for a given temperature, then we can use this equation to calculate the vapor pressure at different temperatures.

The Ideal Gas Law is defined as,

$PV=nRT$

Where, the volume (V) occupied by ‘n’ moles of any gas has a pressure (P) at temperature (T) in Kelvin and ‘R’ = Gas constant

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The percentage chlorobenzene vapor that condenses should be explained.

Concept introduction:

Antoine equation

Antoine equations describe the relationshipbetween vapor pressure and temperature for pure components. This is a semi-empirical relationship.
