Abstract: | The vapour pressures of six liquids have been measured in the approximate range 0.05 to 200 torr and correlated with that of benzene by a method published in an earlier paper. The relationship so obtained which is linear for non-associated substances and is valid from critical conditions to a vapour pressure at least as low as 0.1 torr presents a reliable method of extrapolation of vapour pressure data. It may also be used (at vapour pressures below ? 100 torr) to evaluate the entropy and latent heat of vaporisation of a liquid from even scant vapour pressure data. |
