Commercially available nitric acid is an azeotrope with water at a concentration of 68% HNO 3. This solution has a boiling temperature of 120.5 °C (249 °F) at 1 atm. It is known as "concentrated nitric acid". The azeotrope of nitric acid and water is a colourless liquid at room temperature.
Temperature-dependency of the heats of vaporization for water, methanol, benzene, and acetone. In thermodynamics, the enthalpy of vaporization (symbol ∆H vap), also known as the (latent) heat of vaporization or heat of evaporation, is the amount of energy that must be added to a liquid substance to transform a quantity of that substance into a gas.
The formula used for the prediction of the normal boiling point shows another problem. ... Heat of vaporization at normal boiling point ... (acid) 0.0791 0.0077 89 ...
The rule, however, has some exceptions. For example, the entropies of vaporization of water, ethanol, formic acid and hydrogen fluoride are far from the predicted values. The entropy of vaporization of XeF 6 at its boiling point has the extraordinarily high value of 136.9 J/(K·mol). [4]
The August equation describes a linear relation between the logarithm of the pressure and the reciprocal temp. This assumes a temperature-independent heat of vaporization. The Antoine equation allows an improved, but still inexact description of the change of the heat of vaporization with the temperature.
Water has a very high specific heat capacity of 4184 J/(kg·K) at 20 °C (4182 J/(kg·K) at 25 °C) —the second-highest among all the heteroatomic species (after ammonia), as well as a high heat of vaporization (40.65 kJ/mol or 2257 kJ/kg at the normal boiling point), both of which are a result of the extensive hydrogen bonding between its ...
It is defined as the energy released with the formation of 1 mole of water. When a reaction is carried out under standard conditions at the temperature of 298 K (25 degrees Celsius) and 1 atm of pressure and one mole of water is formed, the heat released by the reaction is called the standard enthalpy of neutralization (ΔH n ⊖).
This reaction is the first step in the production of nitric acid: [13] 4 NH 3 + 7 O 2 → 4 NO 2 + 6 H 2 O. It can also be produced by the oxidation of nitrosyl chloride: 2 NOCl + O 2 → 2NO 2 + Cl 2. Instead, most laboratory syntheses stabilize and then heat the nitric acid to accelerate the decomposition.
