Solution
The correct option is A Exponential increase
The
vapor pressure of a liquid
varies with its temperature, as the following graph shows for water.
The line on the graph shows the boiling temperature for water. As the temperature of a liquid or solid increases
its vapor pressure also increases. Conversely, vapor pressure decreases as
the temperature decreases.
