The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure is the what?
The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure is the boiling point. Evaporation is when vaporization of an uncontained liquid occurs.
Relation between atmospheric pressure and boiling point?
As atmospheric pressure increase so does the boiling pont, when atmos. pressure decreases so does boiling point. A liquid boils when its vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure.
Why does refrigerant pressure decrease in a refrigerant cylinder while charging with vapor?
When vapor refrigerant is pulled out of a cylinder the vapor is reduced and the liquid boils to replace the vapor that has left the cylinder.
When the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the air pressure in the room what will the liquid do?
The liquid starts boiling
What is the measure of the force exerted by a gas above a liquid?
vapor pressure
The conversion of a liquid to a vapor when the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure?
its boiling
The conversation of a liquid to a vapor when the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure?
its boiling
Is the partial pressure of a liquid or solid in a closed container measured at equilibrium at a given temperature?
vapor pressure
Vapor pressure increases over a liquid in a closed container until?
Vapor pressure increases over a liquid in a closed container until the amount of vapor molecules rejoining the liquid equals the number leaving the liquid to form vapor. This is the characteristic vapor pressure of the substance.
Is the vapor pressure of a liquid a linear function of temperature?
If the temperature of the liquid is raised, more molecules escape to the vapor until equilibrium is once again established. The vapor pressure of a liquid, therefore, increases with increasing temperature.
Vapor pressure is inversely not directly related to the temperature of the liquid?
Vapor pressure is not rlated to the temp.
Is refrigerant leaving a compressor in a cars air conditioning system high pressure vapor high pressure liquid or low pressure vapor?
high pressure vapor
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.
What is crude oil true vapor pressure?
True Vapor Pressure is the pressure of the vapor in equilibrium with the liquid at 100 F (it is equal to the bubble point pressure at 100 F)
What is the relationship between the rate of evaporation and the rate of condensation of the vapor of a liquid in a closed container and has a constant vapor pressure?
In a system at constant vapor pressure, a dynamic equilibrium exists between the vapor and the liquid. The system is in equilibrium because the rate of evaporation of liquid equals the rate of condensation of vapor. -KarkatHorns
What term defines the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure?
The temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure is called THE BOILING POINT.
What is kinetic vapour pressure?
Kinetic vapor pressure which is defined as the pressure exerted when a solid or liquid is at equilibrium with its own vapor.
