The latent heat of vaporisation of a substance can be calculated from

  1. A
    Van't Hoff isotherm
  2. B
    Clausius-Clapeyron equation
  3. C
    Kirchhoff's equation
  4. D
    Gibbs-Helmoltz equation

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The Clausius-Clapeyron equation relates the vapor pressure of a substance to the temperature and describes the phase transition line, given by:


Hence, it allows for the determination of the latent heat of vaporisation ().
