Clausius Clapeyron

Clausius - Clapeyron

 

The clausius-clapeyron equation, sometimes referred to as the first latent heat equation, describes how the saturated vapour pressure above a liquid changes with temperature and also how the melting point of a solid changes with pressure. It estimates vapour pressure.
