Question

Acetone, a widely used solvent (as nail-polish remover, for example), has a normal boiling point of $56.05^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and a molar enthalpy of vaporization of $29.10 \mathrm{~kJ} \cdot \mathrm{mol}^{-1} .$ Calculate the equilibrium vapor pressure of acetone at $20.00^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ in torr.

Name: Acetone, a widely used solvent (as nail-polish remover, for example), has a normal boiling point of 56.05^∘C and a molar enthalpy of vaporization of 29.10 kJ·mol^-1 . Calculate the equilibrium vapor pressure of acetone at 20.00^∘C in torr.
