A new static apparatus, capable of measuring vapor pressures in the range (0.4 to 133) Pa and in the temperature
range (243 to 413) K, is fully described. The performance of the new apparatus was checked by measuring the
vapor pressures of four compounds recommended as reference materials for the measurement of vapor pressurenaphthalene, benzoic acid, benzophenone, and ferrocene. A recommended value for the enthalpy of sublimation
of benzophenone,
(298.15 K) = (95.1 ± 1.9) kJ·mol-1, is suggested.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
