A 2.00 g sample of a solid substance A is heated at constant pressure until it completely sublimates. The vapor pressure of A is 0.45 atm at 120 °C and 1.20 atm at 150 °C. Assuming the Clausius-Clapeyron equation applies, (a) calculate the enthalpy of sublimation (ΔH_sub) in kJ·mol⁻¹. (b) Estimate the temperature at which the vapor pressure would be 0.80 atm.

Answer Options

A. ΔH_sub ≈ 52 kJ·mol⁻¹; T ≈ 145 °C
B. ΔH_sub ≈ 38 kJ·mol⁻¹; T ≈ 130 °C
Correct Answer C. ΔH_sub ≈ 45 kJ·mol⁻¹; T ≈ 137 °C
D. ΔH_sub ≈ 60 kJ·mol⁻¹; T ≈ 150 °C
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
ΔH_sub ≈ 45 kJ·mol⁻¹; T ≈ 137 °C
