Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:The maximum pressure that autoclave operatesused to sterilized surgical tools at 1200C needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Autoclaving is a method of sterilizing that sterilizes the product by using high pressure water at different boiling points of water.

Vaporization -liquid changes into gas phase is referred to as vaporization.

Clausius-Clapeyron Equation is represented as follows:

  lnP2P1=ΔHvaporizationR(1T21T1)

Here, P is pressure, ΔHvaporization is change in enthalpy of vaporization, R is Universal gas constant and T is temperature.
