Enthalpy of vaporization: periodicity

Enthalpy of vaporization

Units

kJ mol^-1

When the pressure of the vapour of an element in equilibrium with the liquid is 1 atmosphere, the liquid element boils. Complete conversion into vapour, requires the absorption of the the enthalpy of vaporization, %Delta;H_vap.

Notes
