Gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons, a major component of which is octane, CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3. Octane has a vapor pressu

re of 13.95 torr at 25∘C and a vapor pressure of 144.78 torr at 75∘C. Use these data and the equation in part (a) to calculate the heat of vaporization of octane.

Answer:

\Delta \:H_{vap}=40383.88\ J/mol

Explanation:

The expression for Clausius-Clapeyron Equation is shown below as:

\ln P = \dfrac{-\Delta{H_{vap}}}{RT} + c

Where,  

P is the vapor pressure

ΔHvap  is the Enthalpy of Vaporization

R is the gas constant (8.314×10⁻³ kJ /mol K)

c is the constant.

For two situations and phases, the equation becomes:

\ln \left( \dfrac{P_1}{P_2} \right) = \dfrac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R} \left( \dfrac{1}{T_2}- \dfrac{1}{T_1} \right)

Given:

P_1 = 13.95 torr

P_2 = 144.78 torr

T_1 = 25°C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (25 + 273.15) K = 298.15 K

T_1 = 298.15 K

T_2 = 75°C  = 348.15 K

So,

\ln \:\left(\:\frac{13.95}{144.78}\right)\:=\:\frac{\Delta \:H_{vap}}{8.314}\:\left(\:\frac{1}{348.15}-\:\frac{1}{298.15}\:\right)

\Delta \:H_{vap}=\ln \left(\frac{13.95}{144.78}\right)\frac{8.314}{\left(\frac{1}{348.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}\right)}

\Delta \:H_{vap}=\frac{8.314}{\frac{1}{348.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}}\left(\ln \left(13.95\right)-\ln \left(144.78\right)\right)

\Delta \:H_{vap}=\left(-\frac{863000.86966\dots }{50}\right)\left(\ln \left(13.95\right)-\ln \left(144.78\right)\right)

\Delta \:H_{vap}=40383.88\ J/mol
