Chapter 6, Problem 6.40E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The pressure up to which $\text{1, 4-dichlorobenzene}$ must be squeezed to raise the vapor pressure to $2.00\text{mmHg}$ at given temperature is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The relation between changes of vapor pressure with change in pressure of liquid is given by equation as given below.

$p^{*}=p{e}^{V\Delta P/RT}$

In the above equation, $\Delta P$ is the change in pressure, $V$ is the volume, $p^{*}$ is the new vapor pressure, $p$ is the vapor pressure and $T$ is the temperature.
