The phase diagram of substance X shows that at a pressure of 1 atm the boiling point is 350 K. At this point the slope of the liquid-vapour equilibrium line is \(dP/dT = 0.12\ \text{atm K}^{-1}\). Using the Clapeyron approximation \(\Delta H_{vap} = \Delta V\, dP/dT\, T\) and assuming the molar volume of the liquid is negligible compared with that of the vapour (ideal‑gas behaviour), calculate the molar enthalpy of vaporisation \(\Delta H_{vap}\) in kJ mol⁻¹.

Answer Options

A. 135 kJ mol⁻¹
Correct Answer B. 122 kJ mol⁻¹
C. 150 kJ mol⁻¹
D. 115 kJ mol⁻¹
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
122 kJ mol⁻¹
