The instruction booklet for your pressure cooker indicates that its highest setting is 12.3 psi . you know that standard atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi, so the booklet must mean 12.3 psi above atmospheric pressure. at what temperature in degrees celsius will your food cook in this pressure cooker set on "high"

118 C The Clausius-Clapeyron equation is useful in calculating the boiling point of a liquid at various pressures. It is: Tb = 1/(1/T0 - R ln(P/P0)/Hvap) where Tb = Temperature boiling R = Ideal Gas Constant (8.3144598 J/(K*mol) ) P = Pressure of interest Hvap = Heat of vaporization of the liquid T0, P0 = Temperature and pressure at a known point. The temperatures are absolute temperatures. We know that water boils at 100C at 14.7 psi. Yes, it's ugly to be mixing metric and imperial units like that. But since we're only interested in relative pressure differences, it's safe enough. So P0 = 14.7 P = 14.7 + 12.3 = 27 T0 = 100 + 273.15 = 373.15 And for water, the heat of vaporization per mole is 40660 J/mol Let's substitute the known values and calculate. Tb = 1/(1/T0 - R ln(P/P0)/Hvap) Tb = 1/(1/373.15 K - 8.3144598 J/(K*mol) ln(27/14.7)/40660 J/mol) Tb = 1/(0.002679887 1/K - 8.3144598 1/K ln(1.836734694)/40660) Tb = 1/(0.002679887 1/K - 8.3144598 1/K 0.607989372/40660) Tb = 1/(0.002679887 1/K - 5.055103194 1/K /40660) Tb = 1/(0.002679887 1/K - 0.000124326 1/K) Tb = 1/(0.002555561 1/K) Tb = 391.3034763 K Tb = 391.3034763 K - 273.15 Tb = 118.1534763 C Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 118 C
