Item no.: P3020461
Principle
The vaporisation of a liquid occurs with heat absorption. To determine the enthalpy of vaporisation, a known mass of the liquid which is to be investigated is vaporised in a special vaporisation vessel in a current of air. The quantity of heat absorbed, which corresponds to the enthalpy of vaporisation, can be calorimetrically determined.
Tasks
- Determine the molar enthalpy of vaporisation of diethyl ether and methanol.
- Calculate the molar entropies of vaporisation and discuss the results under consideration of Trouton’s rule.
