Question:

Cox charts are plotted

Show Hint

Cox charts linearize the comparison of vapour pressures using logarithmic scales, simplifying correlation across substances.
Updated On: May 6, 2025
  • Logarithm of vapour pressure of a substance versus logarithm of partial pressure of the reference substance
  • Logarithm of vapour pressure of a substance versus logarithm of the vapour pressure of reference substance
  • Logarithm of vapour pressure of a substance versus temperature
  • Logarithm of vapour pressure of a substance versus partial pressure

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Understand Cox chart use. 
Cox charts are graphical tools used in chemical engineering to compare the vapor pressures of different substances. 
Step 2: Cox chart plotting details. They plot: \[ \log(P) \text{ of the substance} \quad \text{vs.} \quad \log(P) \text{ of the reference substance} \]
