Question

The boiling point of amphetamine, C9H13N, is   201oCat 760torr and 83oC   at 13torr. What is the concentration (ing/m3) of amphetamine when it is in contact with 20oC air?

 

Step-by-Step Solution

Verified
Answer

The concentration of amphetamine when it is in contact with air at temperature 20oC is .42.12g/m3

 

1Step 1: Definition

Enthalpy of vaporization may be defined as the energy required to convert the liquid into the vapor phase. It is also known as Enthalpy of evaporation.

 

Clausius- Clapeyron equation

 

 lnP2P1=ΔHovapR[1T2-1T1]

 

The ideal gas equation is a type of equation that defined the ideal gas. The ideal gas does not affect by the change in the pressure or volume of the gas at any temperature.The equation for the ideal gas is  .PV=nRT

 

A number of moles can be defined as the ratio of the mass of the atom/molecule and the molar mass of the atom/molecule.

 Numberof  Moles=MassMolarMass

 

 

2Step 2: The enthalpy of vaporization of dimethyl ether.

As

Initial Vapour pressure,P1 = 13 atm  

Initial Temperature,  T1= 83oC = 356 k

Final Vapour pressure,  P2 = 760 atm

Final Temperature,  T2= 201oC = 474k

 

Therefore,

lnP1P2=ΔHovapR[1T2-1T1]ln13760=ΔHovap8.314[1474-1356]ln0.0171=ΔHovap8.314[356-474474×356]-4.07=ΔHovap8.314[-118168744]ΔHovap=4.07×8.314×168744118ΔHovap=48.4kJ/mole 

 

 

The enthalpy of vaporisation,  ΔHovap = 48.4kJ/mole.

 

3Step 3:

As, 

Number of  Moles, n =Mass(M)MolarMass(M.M.) 

And,

 PV=nRT760×V=MM.M.×8.314×293760×V=M135×8.314×293760×135=MV×8.314×293MV=760×1358.314×293MV=42.12g/m3

 

 

Therefore, theconcentration of amphetamine when it is in contact with air at temperature 20oC  is42.12g/m3  .
