:<math>\frac{L_{vap}}{T_{boiling}} \approx 80 \frac{J}{K mol}</math>.

==Rheology==
In [[rheology]], '''Trouton's ratio''' is the ratio of [[extensional viscosity]] to [[shear viscosity]].<ref>http://web.mst.edu/~wlf/Mechanical/Trouton.html</ref> For a [[Newtonian fluid]] Trouton's ratio is 3.<ref>http://web.mit.edu/nnf/research/ere/ere.html</ref>
