    Which values can be obtained from the information represented by the vapour pressure curve of a quid? [a] Normal boiling point [b] Normal freezing point [c] Enthalpy of vaporisation

    A)  [A] only          

    B)  [A] and [B] only

    C)  [A] and [C] only  

    D)  [A], [B] and [C]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    A curve between vapour pressure and temperature gives the value of normal boiling point while a graph between In p and 1/T gives the value of enthalpy of vaporisation. \[In\,\,p=-\frac{\Delta \,\,{{H}_{v}}}{R}\left( \frac{1}{T} \right)+\frac{\Delta \,\,{{S}_{v}}}{R}\] where, p = vapour pressure \[\Delta \,\,{{H}_{v}}=\] enthalpy of vaporisation.
