Question

Calculate the boiling point of water at 24 torr pressure. The average Hvap. over the temperature range is 10.12 kcal mol1. Will all the water form gaseous state if placed in a closed container, if not then, how we can convert all the water into vapour state?

Solution

Pressure=24 torr
ΔHvap=10.12 kcal/mol
Using clausius-Clapeyron formula:
ln(P2P1)=ΔHvapR(1T21T1)
where; P2: vapour pressure at time T1
P1: vapour pressure at time T2
ΔHvap= enthalpy
R: gas constant: 8.314 J/kmol
Let us assume at 1 atm pressure. vapour pressure of boiling point is 760 torr
ln(76024)=10.128.314(1T21273)
3.45=1.21(273T2273T2)
3.45=330.33+1.21T2273T2
79.13T21.21T2=330.33
T2=330.3377.92=4.239.
