Question
Chapter 11, Problem 11.66E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The vapor pressure value of given compounds is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
The process of conversion of particles of a substance from a liquid state to gaseous state below the boiling point of the substance is known as evaporation. At a temperature lower than the boiling point of a liquid, the particles are in equilibrium with liquid state and gaseous state. The particles in the gas state exert vapor pressure.
