Step 1
1 of 5The vapor pressure of a substance depends on temperature. We can calculate values of the vapor pressure at different temperatures by using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation which relates the vapor pressure, the temperature, and the heat of vaporization of a substance.
Where and are the values of the vapor pressure at absolute temperatures and . is the heat of vaporization, and is the molar gas constant which equals 8.314 J/ Kmol.
