The vapor pressure of ammonia at 25 °C is 8.5 kPa and its molar enthalpy of vaporisation is \(\Delta H_{\text{vap}} = 23.3 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}\). (a) Using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, estimate the vapor pressure at 35 °C. (b) Assuming the same \(\Delta H_{\text{vap}}\) applies, estimate the temperature at which the vapor pressure equals 101.3 kPa (1 atm), i.e., the boiling point at 1 atm.

Answer Options

A. P(35 °C) ≈ 13.2 kPa; boiling point at 1 atm ≈ 140 °C
Correct Answer B. P(35 °C) ≈ 11.5 kPa; boiling point at 1 atm ≈ 132 °C
C. P(35 °C) ≈ 10.3 kPa; boiling point at 1 atm ≈ 128 °C
D. P(35 °C) ≈ 9.8 kPa; boiling point at 1 atm ≈ 124 °C
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
P(35 °C) ≈ 11.5 kPa; boiling point at 1 atm ≈ 132 °C
