MCQ
What is the melting point of benzene if $\Delta {H_{fusion}}\, = \,9.95\,kJ/mol$ and $\Delta {S_{fusion}}\, = \,35.7\,J/K-mol$ ?
  • A
    $278.7\,^oC$
  • $278.7\,\,K$
  • C
    $300\,\,K$
  • D
    $298\,\,K$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$278.7\,\,K$
b
$\Delta S _{\text {fusion }}=\frac{\Delta H _{\text {fusion }}}{ T }$

$T =\frac{\Delta H }{\Delta S }=\frac{9.95 \times 1000}{35.7}=278\, K$
