The solution to quiz 2 is posted on the class website.  Many of you 
missed the problems related to intermolecular forces.  These were very 
similar to the problem in Aktiv -- so make sure you are getting those 
done to help you prepare for the quiz/test.

Also, the value of R you needed was 8.314 J/deg-mol.   As I mentioned in 
class, there are really only two values of R we use in Gen Chem --

  * 0.08206 L-atm/deg-mol
  * 8.314 J/deg-mol

You need to memorize BOTH of these as well as their units and know when 
to use them.   Finally, many of you plugged in the enthalpy of 
vaporization in kJ/mol into the given equation -- it had to be converted 
to J/mol so that the units would cancel properly with R.
