Explain the effect of pressure on the melting and boiling points of a substance using Clapeyron's latent heat equation. Calculate under what pressure, water will boil at 120^\circ\mathrm{C}, if the change in specific volume when 1 gram of water is converted into steam is 1676\ \mathrm{cm^3}. Latent heat of steam =540\ \mathrm{cal/g}, 1 atmospheric pressure =10^6\ \mathrm{dynes/cm^2}.
