Homework Equations



Heat of condensation = -(heat of vaporization)

The Attempt at a Solution



Okay, so I tried to find the heat of vaporization. Then I to took the negative of it since the process is condensation, and energy is being released from the methanol as it condenses into a liquid. I was wondering if my process was right since I tried multiple times, unsuccessfully, to even get an answer that was in the answer choices.
