Now plot the data with ln (Pv) on y-axis and on the T-1
x-axis. After you have plotted the data go to the next page to see the plot.
In the plot above I've plotted the data (ln (Pv) versus T-1).
I also did a linear regression on the data to get the equation for the line
(the R value is perfect...great professor data!).
Can do determine the delta H of vaporization for ammonia? Answer.
