From the Wikipedia article (linked to the left of this answer): "Trouton’s rule states that the entropy of vaporization is almost the same value, about 87-88 J K-1 mol-1, for various kinds of liquids. The entropy of vaporization is defined as the ratio between the enthalpy of vaporization and the boiling temperature." This value of 87-88 J K-1 mol-1, Trouton's constant, is also about equal to 10.5 * R, where R is the universal gas constant (R = 8.314472 J K-1 mol-1).
