Boiling Point of Ethanol from Gibbs Free Energy
Not what you're looking for?
Delta S (standard conditions) for the following reaction is favorable even though delta H (standard conditions) is not:
C2H5OH (l) <-> C2H5OH (g)
Assume that ethanol boils at the temperature where delta G (standard conditions) for this reaction becomes zero. Use the values of delta H and delta S for this reaction to estimate the boiling point of benzene.
