Question
AH of vaporization of water is 439.2 cal/g at the normal boing point. Since virus can survive at 404.39 K by forming
spores. Most virus spores die at 851.9 K. Hence, autoclaves used to sterilize medical and laboratory instruments are
pressurized to raise the boiling point of water to 851.9 K. Find out at what InP (torr) does water boil at 851.9 K?
