Problem: Butane is a common fuel used in cigarette lighters and camping stoves. Normally supplied in metal containers under pressure, the fuel exists as a mixture of liquid and gas, so high temperatures may cause the container to explode. At 25.0 degrees C, the vapor pressure of butane is 2.30 atm.
Required:
Question: What is the pressure in the container at 141 degrees C? (delta H vapor pressure = 24.3 kJ/mol) Please explain your answer and also provide examples
