Acrylic acid (CH₂=CHCOOH) is a monomer used tomake super absorbent polymers and various compounds for paint and adhesive production. At 1 atm, it boils at 141.5°C but is proneto polymerization. Its vapor pressure at 25C is 4.1 m bar. What pressure (in mmHg) is needed to distill the pure acid at 65°C?
