Step 1

Which liquid is the most volatile? The most volatile liquid is the one with the highest vapor pressure at a given temperature. Looking at the graph, we can see that orthoxylene has the highest vapor pressure at all temperatures, so orthoxylene is the most volatile Show more…

This graph shows how the vapor pressure of three liquids varies with temperature: vapor pressure, torr 900 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 orthoxylene isobutyl alcohol octane 100 110 120 130 140 temperature, °C Use the graph to answer the following questions: Which liquid is the most volatile? Which is the least volatile? most volatile: choose one least volatile: choose one What is the normal boiling point of each liquid? Note: your answer must be within 1°C of the exact answer to be graded correct. orthoxylene: °C isobutyl alcohol: °C octane: °C Suppose a beaker of isobutyl alcohol is put inside a sealed tank containing isobutyl alcohol gas at 104. degree C and 645. torr. After ten minutes, will there be more liquid in the beaker, less liquid, or the same amount? more less the same
