The problem in the image is about finding the boiling point of hexane at a pressure of 0.5 atm, given the following information:

- Molar heat of vaporization of hexane (\( \Delta H_{vap} \)) = 30.8 kJ/mol
- Boiling point at 1 atm = 68.90°C

To solve this, we use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation:

\[
\ln \left(\frac{P_1}{P_2}\right) = \frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R} \left(\frac{1}{T_2} - \frac{1}{T_1}\right)
\]

Where:
- \( P_1 \) = 1 atm (initial pressure)
- \( P_2 \) = 0.5 atm (final pressure)
- \( T_1 \) = 68.90°C = 342.05 K (initial boiling temperature)
- \( T_2 \) = final boiling temperature in Kelvin
- \( R \) = 8.314 J/mol·K (gas constant)

### Steps to solve:

1. Convert \(\Delta H_{vap}\) to J/mol: \( 30.8 \text{ kJ/mol} = 30,800 \text{ J/mol} \).
2. Rearrange the Clausius-Clapeyron equation to solve for \( T_2 \).
3. Solve for \( T_2 \).

Let's proceed with the calculations.

\[
\ln \left(\frac{1}{0.5}\right) = \frac{30,800}{8.314} \left(\frac{1}{T_2} - \frac{1}{342.05}\right)
\]

Calculating this will give the new boiling point \( T_2 \). Let's do the math.The boiling point of hexane at a pressure of 0.5 atm is approximately \( 92.29^\circ \text{C} \).
