Document Summary

Self-study: viscosity, surface tension, capillary action ( 10. 4) Vapour pressure is the equilibrium partial pressure of the vapour in the space above a liquid. A liquid will boil when its vapour pressure is equal to atmospheric pressure. The normal bp of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapour pressure is 1. 01325 bar (1 atm). Liquids with high vapour pressure at room temperature have low boiling points. A pot of water is placed on a stove. Before it boils, bubbles form at the bottom of the pot and rise to the top. What are the bubbles made of? (a) heat (b) air (c) oxygen gas and hydrogen gas (d) water vapour. V. p. curve can be used to find boiling point at pressures other than 1. 01325 bar (1 atm = 760. The vapour pressure of acetylene, c2h2, stored in a pressurized cylinder is about 0. 025 bar at 150 k and.
