Use the vapor pressure curves shown in the figure below for methyl ethyl ether, $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OCH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}$; carbon disulfide, $\mathrm{CS}_{2} ;$ and benzene, $\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{6}$, to answer these questions. (a) What is the vapor pressure of methyl ethyl ether at $0{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ ? (b) Which of these three liquids has the strongest intermolecular attractions? (c) At what temperature does benzene have a vapor pressure of $600 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{Hg}$ ? (d) What are the normal boiling points of these three liquids?
