Question:

The vapor pressure of Hg(l) as a function of temperature is log P(mmHg) = (–0.05223 a/T) + b, where a = 61,960 and b = 8.118; T is the Kelvin temperature. Show that at 25 °C, the concentration of Hg(g) in equilibrium with Hg(l) greatly exceeds the maximum permissible level of 0.05 mg Hg/m3 air.
