Explanation:
It is given that vapor pressure of liquid iodomethane is 40.0 mm Hg. So, if we calculate the vapor pressure according to the given values and if its value will be greater than the the given vapor pressure of iodomethane then it means that some of the vapors has converted into liquid state.
As the given values are as follows.
= 72.0 mm Hg,
= 404 K
= ? ,
= 249 K
As volume is constant so, according to Gay-Lussac's law pressure is directly proportional to temperature.
(at constant volume)
or,
= k
Therefore, the formula to calculate the value of
is as follows.
= 
= 
= 44.37 mm Hg
As calculated vapor pressure is more than the given vapor pressure. Hence, the liquid will convert into gas.
As a result, no condensation will occur and only vapors of iodomethane will be present.
Answer:
Increasing the surface area of the reactants
Explanation:
An increase in surface area of the reactant will always cause an increase in the rate of reaction. This is so because, an increase in the surface area of the reactant will cause the reactant particles to collide effectively thereby bringing about an increase in the reaction rate.
Collision theory suggests that for a reaction to occur, the reactant particles must collide with the right orientation. As the surface area of the reactants are increased, the reactants particles collide more with the right orientation bringing about definite increase in the rate of reaction.
You will feel way better because in our class we learned that lukewarm baths are good for fevers and warm washcloths :)
