A Independent of temperature
B Increases with rise in pressure
C Increased with decrease in pressure
D Unchanged with pressure changes
Correct Answer: Increases with rise in pressure
At 100°C, water and methylcyclohexane both have vapour pressures of 1 atm. Also at 100°C, the latent heats of vaporisation of these compounds are 40.63 kJ/mole for water and 31.55 kJ/mole for methylcyclohexane. The vapour pressure of water at 150°C is 4.69 atm. At 150°C, the vapour pressure of methylcyclohexane would be expected to be_________________?
A Significantly less than 4.69 atm
B Nearly equal to 4.69 atm
C Significantly more than 4.69 atm
D Indeterminate due to lack of data
Correct Answer: Significantly more than 4.69 atm
