QUESTION:
Estimate the vapor pressure of acetone (mm Hg) at \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) (a) from data in Perry's Chemical Engineers' Handbook and the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, (b) from the Cox chart (Figure 6.1-4), and (c) from the Antoine equation using parameters from Table B.4.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 4
a) From data in Perry's Chemical Engineers' Handbook,
The value of \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) is not provided.
If the data fits the Clausius -Clapeyron equation, then the natural logarithmic of the partial 1
Pressure and Temperature in Kelvins \(\bar{T}\) will form a linear relationship with a slope, "a" and intercept “b”.
The slope and intercept are then:
