The liquid‑vapour equilibrium of a pure substance follows the Clausius-Clapeyron relation. Two experimental points on the coexistence curve are: at \(T_1 = 350\ \text{K}\), \(P_1 = 0.80\ \text{atm}\); at \(T_2 = 400\ \text{K}\), \(P_2 = 1.50\ \text{atm}\). Assuming the vapour behaves as an ideal gas and that the enthalpy of vapourisation \(\Delta H_{\text{vap}}\) is constant over this temperature range, calculate \(\Delta H_{\text{vap}}\) in kJ\,mol\(^{-1}\).

Answer Options

A. \(\Delta H_{\text{vap}} \approx 20.1\ \text{kJ mol}^{-1}\).
B. \(\Delta H_{\text{vap}} \approx 12.3\ \text{kJ mol}^{-1}\).
C. \(\Delta H_{\text{vap}} \approx 16.8\ \text{kJ mol}^{-1}\).
Correct Answer D. \(\Delta H_{\text{vap}} \approx 14.6\ \text{kJ mol}^{-1}\).
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
\(\Delta H_{\text{vap}} \approx 14.6\ \text{kJ mol}^{-1}\).
