Final answer:

To determine the normal boiling point of hydrogen peroxide, we can use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. However, the given information is incorrect and does not allow us to calculate the temperature accurately.

Step-by-step explanation:

The normal boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which its vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure at sea level. To determine the temperature at which the process reaches equilibrium, we can use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. By substituting the given values for vapor pressure and temperature into the equation, we can solve for the unknown temperature.

Using the equation:

ln(P₂/P₁) = (ΔH_vap/R) * (1/T₁ - 1/T₂)

where P₁ and T₁ are the known vapor pressure and temperature, P₂ is the unknown vapor pressure, and T₂ is the unknown temperature, we can rearrange the equation and solve for T₂.

However, the specific values and equation provided in the question do not match the given information. Therefore, it is not possible to determine the exact temperature at which the process reaches equilibrium without correct information.
