The pressure at which liquid and vapour can coexist at equilibrium is called the :
The pressure at which liquid and vapour can coexist at equilibrium is called the :
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B saturated vapour pressure
Ordinary evaporation is a surface phenomenon - some molecules have enough kinetic energy to escape. If the container is closed, then an equilibrium is reached where an equal number of molecules return to the surface.
The pressure at which this equilibrium where the coexistence of liquid and vapour is achieved is called the saturated vapor pressure.
