The vapor pressures over benz[a]anthracene (B[a]A), benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P), benzo[e]pyrene (B[e]P), benzo[ghi]perylene (B[ghi]P), and coronene have been measured using the Knudsen effusion weight loss method. The parameters A and B in the equation log10 [p(atm)] = -(A/T) + B and the enthalpies of sublimation in kcal mol−1 derived therefrom are respectively: B[a]A, 5925 ± 36, 10.045 ± 0.099, 27.12 ± 0.54; B[a]P, 6181 ± 32, 9.601 ± 0.083, 28.29 ± 0.51; B[e]P, 6220 ± 33, 9.736 ± 0.085, 28.46 ± 0.55; B[ghi]P, 6674 ± 40, 9.519 ± 0.093, 30.54 ± 0.55; coronene, 7100 ± 69, 9.110 ± 0.149, 32.49 ± 0.55. The errors shown for the A and B values are standard deviations and for the enthalpies of sublimation are estimates of total probable error.

The Knudsen effusion method has been applied in a study of the vapor pressures of manganese in equilibrium with copper–manganese alloys at high temperatures. The amount of manganese effused was determined by the use of radioactive Mn54. The odd behavior noted in this system at 20–30% Mn, observed in a number of studies of various physical properties, has been observed once more in the apparent activity of manganese. Some discussion is given of the Knudsen effusion method, particularly regarding some possible sources of error.
