  1. What is the difference between "vapour" and "gas"?

    Apr 19, 2021 · Vapor implies the existence of a condensed phase that is the source or destination of the gas, or with which the gas may be in equilibrium; while gas does not make such an assumption.

  2. thermodynamics - Why do we have water vapor at room temperature …

    May 6, 2024 · 1 Think of molecules of water liquid escaping into vapor, and molecules of water vapor condensing into liquid. Both processes occur simultaneously, and an equilibrium is reached in a …

  3. Why does the pressure sharply increase when the liquid/vapor ...

    Oct 2, 2024 · The equilibrium vapor pressure varies with temperature because of two factors - 1)kinetic energy of particles and 2) number density. Both increase non-negligibly with temperature. The …

  4. physical chemistry - What is the differences between partial pressure ...

    Jan 23, 2014 · Vapor pressure or equilibrium vapor pressure is the pressure exerted by a vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases (solid or liquid) at a given temperature in a …

  5. what's the difference between gas and vapour? [duplicate]

    Nov 28, 2022 · A vapor is a gas in possible equilibrium with its liquid [or solid] at a temperature below its critical T and either in contact with the liquid or at the equilibrium vapor pressure. If not at a sufficient …

  6. General rules for deciding volatility - Chemistry Stack Exchange

    In chemistry and physics, volatility is the tendency of a substance to vaporize. Volatility is directly related to a substance's vapor pressure. At a given temperature, a substance with higher vapor pressure …

  7. Why is the relationship between vapour pressure and boiling point of ...

    Dec 26, 2023 · 3 If you took out vapor at some moment and if you put it in a container of a fixed volume then its pressure would linearly grow with temperature, as in the Charles' law. The point is, amount of …

  8. Relationship between vapour pressure and saturated vapour pressure

    Aug 5, 2015 · I need clarity on saturated vapour pressure in a closed system at equilibrium. How does saturated vapour pressure relate to vapour pressure?

  9. How to calculate the vapour density of a mixture?

    Jul 16, 2017 · Was it safe to assume that the amount of substance of mixture equals that of the amount of substance of both the gases? Amount of substance is additive, just like mass. You have to be …

  10. Confusion between vapor pressure vs. vapor-liquid equilibrium

    Sep 22, 2024 · At the right low gas pressure means no liquid; increasing pressure below the critical T eventually induces liquid formation in equilibrium; attempts to increase pressure simply increase …
