Because that's where they come from. Coal, oil, and natural gas are the products
of dead dinosaurs rotting in the ground under great pressure for millions of years.
(a) One form of the Clausius-Clapeyron equation is
ln(P₂/P₁) = (ΔHv/R) * (1/T₁ - 1/T₂); where in this case:
Solving for ΔHv:
- ΔHv = R * ln(P₂/P₁) / (1/T₁ - 1/T₂)
- ΔHv = 8.31 J/molK * ln(5.3/1.3) / (1/358.96 - 1/392.46)
(b) <em>Normal boiling point means</em> that P = 1 atm = 101.325 kPa. We use the same formula, using the same values for P₁ and T₁, and replacing P₂ with atmosferic pressure, <u>solving for T₂</u>:
- ln(P₂/P₁) = (ΔHv/R) * (1/T₁ - 1/T₂)
- 1/T₂ = 1/T₁ - [ ln(P₂/P₁) / (ΔHv/R) ]
- 1/T₂ = 1/358.96 K - [ ln(101.325/1.3) / (49111.12/8.31) ]
(c)<em> The enthalpy of vaporization</em> was calculated in part (a), and it does not vary depending on temperature, meaning <u>that at the boiling point the enthalpy of vaporization ΔHv is still 49111.12 J/molK</u>.

Answer:
THE PERCENT ERROR IS 5.55 %
Explanation:
To calculate the percent error, we use the formula:
Percent error = Found value - accepted value / accepted value * 100
Found value = 2.85 g/cm3
Accepted value = 2.70 g/cm3
Solving for the percent error, we have:
Percent error = 2.85 g/cm3 - 2.70 g/cm3 / 2.70 g/cm3 * 100
Percent error = 0.15 / 2.70 * 100
Percent error = 0.05555 * 100
Percent error = 5.55 %
In conclusion, the percent error is 5.55 %
