Answer:

In many areas of the United States, the demand for freshwater is likely to increase while supplies decrease due, in part, to a changing climate. ... As warmer temperatures increase the demand for water, the amount of freshwater available may decline and increase competition for water resources in some areas.

The vapor pressure of ethanol is 1.00 × 102 mmHg at 34.90°C. What is its vapor pressure at 60.21°C? (ΔHvap for ethanol is 39.3 k

Answer:

The vapor pressure at 60.21°C is 327 mmHg.

Explanation:

Given the vapor pressure of ethanol at 34.90°C is 102 mmHg.

We need to find vapor pressure at 60.21°C.

The Clausius-Clapeyron equation is often used to find the vapor pressure of pure liquid.

$ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta_{vap}H}{R}(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2})$

We have given in the question

$P_1=102\ mmHg$

$T_1=34.90\°\ C=34.90+273.15=308.05\ K\\T_2=60.21\°\ C=60.21+273.15=333.36\ K\\\Delta{vap}H=39.3 kJ/mol$

And $R$ is the Universal Gas Constant.

$R=0.008 314 kJ/Kmol$

$ln(\frac{P_2}{102})=\frac{39.3}{0.008314}(\frac{1}{308.05}-\frac{1}{333.36})\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{102})=4726.967(\frac{333.36-308.05}{333.36\times308.05})\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{102})=4726.967(\frac{25.31}{333.36\times308.05})\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{102})=4726.967(\frac{25.31}{102691.548})\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{102})=1.165$

Taking inverse log both side we get,

$\frac{P_2}{102}=e^{1.165}\\\\P_2=102\times 3.20\ mmHg\\P_2=327\ mmHg$
