The Vapor Pressure of Zinc in the Range 300°—360°C

Abstract

The vapor pressure of zinc has been measured using Knudsen's effusion method. The temperature-vapor pressure relation was found to be log10pmm=(−6688/T)+8.888 in the range 300°—360°C. These results are about 20 percent higher than those previously reported. It is suggested that this difference may be attributed principally to the omission of a probability factor by earlier workers.
