The normal boiling point of an ether is ...

The normal boiling point of an ether is 307 K. Ether is to be a stored in aluminium drums that can withstand a pressure of 10 atm. If `Delta H_("vaporisation")` of ether is 27 kJ `mol^(-1)` at its boiling point, the maximum temperature to which the drums of ether could be safely exposed is

A

293 K

B

315 K

C

392 K

D

420 K

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the maximum temperature to which the drums of ether could be safely exposed, we can use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, which relates the change in vapor pressure with temperature to the enthalpy of vaporization. The equation is given by: \[ \ln\left(\frac{P_2}{P_1}\right) = -\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R} \left(\frac{1}{T_2} - \frac{1}{T_1}\right) \] Where: - \( P_1 \) is the vapor pressure at boiling point (1 atm), ...
