The following data give the vapour pressure (P) of water at various temperatures. We expect the vapour pressure to be related to temperature through the simple form of the Antoine Equation (which itself derives from the Clausius-Clapeyron relation): log(P) = A - / Use Excel to find the least-squares line for the data, using log(P) as the dependent variable and 1/T, where T is expressed in Kelvin units, as the independent variable. Determine A and B. Clues: a. Converting Unit (C K) b.
