Question: (A) Equilibrium is established between liquid hexane, C 6 H 14 , and its vapor at 25.0 C. A sample of the vapor is found

(A) Equilibrium is established between liquid hexane, C6H14, and its vapor at 25.0 °C. A sample of the vapor is found to have a density of 0.701 g/L. Calculate the vapor pressure of hexane at 25.0 °C, expressed in Torr.

(B) With the help of Figure 12-18, estimate the density of the vapor in equilibrium with liquid diethyl ether at 20.0 °C.
