Question

A sample of acetone is placed in a sealed container at 39.5 degrees C that has a volume of 800.00 mL and was allowed to evaporate. When the evaporation was completed, the pressure inside the container was 352.5 mmHg. To what volume would you need to compress this sample in order to get the acetone to condense? The vapor pressure of acetone at 39.5 degrees C is 400 mmHg.

Step 1

First, we need to convert the given pressure and volume to the appropriate units. We'll use atmospheres for pressure and liters for volume. Given pressure: 352.5 mmHg Conversion factor: 1 atm = 760 mmHg Converted pressure: $\frac{352.5 \text{ mmHg}}{760 \text{ Show more…
