Explain how the attractive forces between the particles in a liquid and the equilibrium vapor pressure of that liquid related?

The weaker the intermolecular forces, the easier the liquid evaporates. Higher vapor pressure the faster it evaporates. Thus, the weaker the attractive forces, the higher the vapor pressure and vice versa.

Using the kinetic theory explain why the pressure of a gas increases when the temperature increases?
When the temperature of a gas increases, the Kinetic Energy of the particles increases. This means that they move faster and apply a greater force when they collide with the walls of the container. As pressure is the force per unit area on the container, the pressure increases. This is Gay-Lussac's "Pressure Temperature" Law: "P = kT".
What does a compound pressure gauge measure?
i need to explain what an absolute pressure gauge measures
When a load was added to the piston the volume of the liquid did not change but the volume of the air decreased Explain why this happened?
The particles in a liquid are very close together, so an increase in pressure cannot push them any closer. The particles in a gas are widely spaced, so they can easily be forced closer together. Gases are compressible, liquids are not.
Explain how a radiator in a room is able to warm the whole room?
warm air particles slowly pass heat energy to all the other air particles
When a gas is heated in a container the pressure increases explain why using the particle theory of matter?
According to Charles law, when pressure is kept constant,the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.The given mass of gas starts to rise with the rise in temperature and reduces with reduction in temperature.

How does the kinetic theory explain Brownian motion?
The molecules are in a state of constant motion. The particles exert attractive force on one another. The particles possess kinetic energy due to their motion.

Why must there be an attractive force to explain existence of stable nuclei?
Nuclei are made of protons (positively charged), plus neutrons (no charge) Positively charged particles repel each other, so there must be another force preventing them from flying apart. That's why there must be an attractive force.
Can you explain why there is no pressure for the equilibrium price to change?
The equilibrium price exists when at that price supply and demand for a product are equal. Apparently at that price level everybody is happy and as long as nothing changes there will be no pressure. If it would arise because of an increase in eithersupply or demand, the price would no longer be an equilibrium price and it would shift to another - higher or lower - level.
Explain what happens to a gas when it is put into a container?
The gas particles will spread out to encompass the entire volume of the container. The particles are constantly in motion and will run into the walls of the container creating pressure (basically). If heated, the particles will move faster, and slower if cooled.

Explain when a matter is in a state of equilibrium?
It is in equilibrium when the two conditions are satisfied - there is no net translational equilibrium and no net rotational equilibrium. For translational equilibrium, the summation of forces acting on the matter must equate to zero, which means that there is no resultant force. For rotational equilibrium, the sum of moments must be zero, which means there is no resultant torque. When these two conditions are met, the object will be stationary, i.e. it is in a state of equilibrium.
