Vapor Pressure-Temperature Nomographs

SAMUEL B. LIPPINCOTT AND MARGARET M. LYMAN
Esso Laboratories, Standard Oil Development Company, Elizabeth, N . J .
Nomographs are presented that give vapor pressure-temperature relations for compounds boiling from -50" to 550' C. If any two of the three related quantities, vapor pressure, temperature, and normal boiling point, are known, the third can be found by a single setting of a straight edge.

where At =

t = observed boiling points, C. 2.8808 - log p = log of observed pressure subtracted

C. to be added to obseTed boiling point

from log of 760 d. = quantity proportional to entropy of vaporization of 760 mm.

need often arises in the laboratory and plant for a rapid method of calculating vapor pressure-temperature relations. A number of nomographs for this purpose have appeared in the literature, but for the most part each nomograph represents only a single class of compounds, and each compound is represented by a given point. The nomographs presented here can be used for all pure liquids boiling between -50' and 560" C. The slide rule for vapor pressure described by Miles ( 2 ) can be applied to a similar range of compounds. The nornographs have the advantage that they do not have to be cut out and mounted before use. Miles gives a complete bibliography of the subject. The nomographs presented here are based upon a method for the correction of boiling points to standard pressure by Hass and Xewton (1). They used a modification of the integrated form of the Clausius-Clapeyron equation:
4

THE

At =

(273.1

+ + 0.15

+ t)(2.8808 - log p )
(2.8808

- log p )

Thc solution of this equation is rather laborious and time consuming. First a value for must be determined. For this purpose all compounds are divided arbitrarily into eight groups and listed (Tables I and 11). Substances not included in the tabula,tion may be classified by grouping them with compounds which they resemble closely in physical and structural properties. When the compound has been classified, the value of + can be estimated from a graph in which is plotted against boiling point f for each of the eight groups. I the normal boiling point is the unknown, a t least two calculations must be made. The first gives an approximate boiling point; the latter, in turn, is used to obtain a value of + from which to make the more accurate calculxtion. The nornographs (Figures 1 and 2) solve the equation by a single setting of a straight edge. The eight curves through the center of each nomograph represent. the eight groups. The scale along these Eurves gives the normal or standard boiling point a t 760 mm. Thc scale a t the right gives the observed boiling point, and the logarithmic scale a t the left gives the observed pressure.

4 straight edge connecting an observed pressure with the corresponding temperature indicates the normal boiling point on the center scale by its intersection with the curve representing the gwup to which the compound belongs. If any two of the three related quantities (vapor pressure, temperature, and normal boiling point) are known, the third can be found by a single setting of the straight edge. Typical compounds are listed in alphabetical order in Table I and divided into the eight groups in Table 11. If a compound is not listed in Table I, i t can be placed in a group containing similar substances by referring to Table 11. For example, amines in general are classified in group 3, but dimethylamine and ethylamine are in group 4, and methylamine is in group 5. If ethylmethylamine were under consideration, it would be placed in group 4. Dibutylamine would be placed in group 3. Hydrocarbons] in general, are in group 2, but there are exceptions, anthracene, phenanthrene, and butylethylene being listed in group 1. The use of the nomograph can be illustrated best by an example. Bis-8-chloroethyl ether distills at 59' at 10 mm. What is the normal boiling point, and at what temperature will it distill s when the pressure i 25 mm.? Chloroethyl ether is not listed in Table I, but halogen derivatives are stated to be in the same group as though the halogen were hydrogen, and therefore it belongs in group 2 with ethers. The straight edge is placed so that i t connects 10 111111. on the pressure scale with 59' on the temperature scale, and the point of intersection with the group 2 curve TABLE 111.

is the normal boiling point, 178". The straight edge is rotated about this point to 25 mm. on the pressure scale. The reading on the temperature scale, 77", is the boiling point a t 25 mm. I n order t o check the accuracy of the nomographs, seventyfive problems were solved, and the answers checked with those obtained by mathematical calculations. Sixty-seven of the answers agreed with the calculated within 1" C. Only one answer differed from the calculated by more than 2". A further check was made by determining with the nomographs the temperatures a t which certain compounds possessed given vapor pressures and comparing the answers with published data. Some nine hundred sets of data representing eighty-four compounds were checked. The average absolute deviation of the nomographic values from the published values was 0.9' C. The maximum deviation was 8.0" C. These data are given in Table I11 as they apply to various types of compounds. The larger deviations are associated with the amines, carboxylic acids, and phenols. It is possible that some of the larger deviations are due to inaccuracies in the published data. I n fact, in some cases in which the nomographic and the published values disagreed greatly, a search of more recent literature revealed values that checked closely with the nomograph. These results were obtained by using a larger size nomograph'.
