Document Summary

Vapor pressure increases as temperature increases if temperature decreases, vapor pressure decreases. Pressure that vapor phase molecules exert on surface of liquid when at equilibrium. T= temperature in kelvin (if its in celsius, add 273 degrees) if your answer is higher than the given vapor pressure, this means that not all will evaporate. Higher equilibrium vapor pressure low boiling point. When vapor pressure is exactly equal to atmospheric pressure. When vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure of 1 atm this is called normal boiling point. When liquid boils, it overcomes the strength of the imf"s. Higher equilibrium vapor pressure means lower boiling point. When depicted graphically, above the curve is liquid phase and below the curve is gas phase. Summary effect of imf in a liquid, if strength increases, energy needed to vaporize the liquid will also increase. Equilibrium vapor pressure decreases and consequently the liquid normal boiling point increases. If imf in liquid increase the equilibrium vapor pressure decreases.
