Resources for finding boiling point at other than 1 atm?

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around finding reliable resources or methods to determine the boiling point of substances at pressures other than 1 atm. Participants explore various references and tools available for this purpose.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests recommendations for reliable boiling point resources, expressing doubt about a specific calculator.
  • Another participant points out the availability of information on vapor pressure and Antoine constants, questioning what the original poster has not found.
  • A link to a specific resource on boiling points is provided by a participant.
  • One participant suggests checking traditional handbooks or chemistry and physics references for boiling point data.
  • Another participant emphasizes that water is well-documented and mentions specific references like Rogers and Mayhew and Kaye & Laby for reliable data.
  • A participant questions the assumption that the discussion is solely about water, prompting clarification from the original poster.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not seem to agree on whether the discussion is focused exclusively on water, indicating a potential misunderstanding or differing perspectives on the topic.

Contextual Notes

Some participants reference specific resources and methodologies without verifying their reliability or applicability to substances other than water.

Who May Find This Useful

Individuals interested in thermodynamics, chemistry, or material properties may find this discussion relevant, particularly those seeking resources for boiling point calculations at varying pressures.

I would appreciate it if someone could recommend something. I found a boiling point calculator by CalcTool but it doesn't seem that reliable.
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
Don't understand. There are tons of hits for 'vapour pressure as a function of temperature ' or for 'Antoine constants' (coefficients) .

What have you not found ?

Not having actually checked this in any, but try looking in a regular book type of Handbook or Chemistry & Physics.
 
Water is one the most extensively documented substances there is . There are many standard references .

Rogers and Mayhew provides adequate data for most calculations involving water and steam .

Kaye & Laby is an excellent general reference for material properties and other useful information .

How come respondents seem to think this is about water ?
Is it, @goggles31 ?
