  1. In the vicinity of the triple point, the vapour pressures of liquid and solid ammonia are respectively given by ln P= 15.16 – 3063/T and In P= 18.70 – 3754/T where P is in atmospheric and T is in kelvin. What is the temperature at the triple point?
    1. 95.2 K
    2. 19.2 K
    3. 195.2 K
    4. 115.2 K
Correct Option: C

At triple point the vapour pressure of solid ammonia is equal to vapor pressure of liquid ammonia

-3063
= 18.7 -
3754
TT

T =
3754 - 3036
= 195.2 K
18.7 - 15.16
