Cyclopentane

Recommended Posts

hi to everyone. i need to ask before i try:)

 

Cyclopentane is enclosed in a rubber ballon. when dipped in water that is 55C hot it expands due to the liquid to vapour process (cyclopentane has a boiling temp of 49.5C). i want to know at what temp approximately will it convert back to its liquid form ( the balloon will contract to its original shape.any way to speed up the process?the room temerature is 30C. will the temperature difference (water-room) be sufficient to cause a quick vapour-to-liquid reaction thus contracting the ballon?

 

thanks ^_^

We're not doing your home work for you. I definatly think you need to do some more reading, because I would tend to think you're borderline handicapped if you don't know this one.
