The liquid-vapour equilibrium of a substance obeys the Clausius-Clapeyron relation with a constant enthalpy of vaporisation over the temperature range considered. At 350 K the vapour pressure is 0.80 atm and at 370 K it is 1.20 atm. Its solid-vapour equilibrium also follows the same relation with a constant enthalpy of sublimation. At 300 K the sublimation pressure is 0.10 atm and at 320 K it is 0.25 atm. Using R = 8.314 J mol\(^{-1}\) K\(^{-1}\), calculate (i) the enthalpy of vaporisation ΔHvap, (ii) the enthalpy of sublimation ΔHsub, both in kJ mol\(^{-1}\), and (iii) the enthalpy of fusion ΔHfus.

Answer Options

A. ΔHvap ≈ 24.5 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHsub ≈ 38.2 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHfus ≈ 13.5 kJ mol⁻¹
B. ΔHvap ≈ 22.3 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHsub ≈ 40.1 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHfus ≈ 12.0 kJ mol⁻¹
C. ΔHvap ≈ 19.0 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHsub ≈ 34.0 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHfus ≈ 15.2 kJ mol⁻¹
Correct Answer D. ΔHvap ≈ 21.8 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHsub ≈ 36.6 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHfus ≈ 14.8 kJ mol⁻¹
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
ΔHvap ≈ 21.8 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHsub ≈ 36.6 kJ mol⁻¹; ΔHfus ≈ 14.8 kJ mol⁻¹
