There are various steps that are involved in a scientific investigation. Observation is the first step of the scientific investigation. In this step, a close examination is laid on the investigation. Observation is collected with the senses and the information is gathered.

In the given excerpt, Clive missed the observation part of the scientific investigation. All the other three steps were followed by Clive. He was not able to observe the situation and so was not able to provide the answers to the questions asked by his classmates.

Methanol has a normal boiling point of 64.6C and a heat of vaporization of 35.2 kJ/mol. What is the vapor pressure (in Torr) of

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

vapor pressure of methanol at 12.0C = 75.09 torr

Explanation:

Using Clausius Clapeyron equation

, we have that

ln (P2/P1)= (ΔHvap /R) (1/T1 - 1/T2)

Given

At Normal boiling point,

Temperature T1= 64.6°C = 64.6 + 273 = 337.6 K, Pressure,P1 = 1 atm

Heat of vaporization = 35.2 kJ/mol

Changing to J/mol

=35.2 x 1000= 35200 J/mol

Temperature , T2 = 12.0oC = 12 + 273 = 285 K

Using gas constant, R = 8.314 J/mol.K

ln (P2/P1)= -(ΔHvap /R) (1/T1 - 1/T2)

ln (P2/ 1 atm) = (35200 J/mol/ (8.314 J/mol.K) X( 1/337.6 - 1/285)

ln (P2/ 1 atm) =4,233.822 X (0.00296-0.003508)

ln (P2/ 1 atm) = 4,233.822468 x-0.0005466866

ln (P2/ 1 atm)= -2.31457

P2 = e^⁻2.31457 x 1 atm

P2=0.098808atm

= 0.098808atm x760 = 75.09 torr
