Jan 15, 2015 · Hi, I need help understanding their relationship. From my understanding, the higher the vapor pressure, the lower the boiling point (inversely related) However, at high …

May 4, 2007 · The boiling point is where the vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure. If substance A has a higher vapor pressure than substance B at a given temp, you could think of …

May 29, 2010 · Boiling Point Elevation - BP goes up because VP goes down. A liquid will begin to vaporize or boil when the vapor pressure of a solution equals atmospheric pressure. If you …

Aug 12, 2009 · At a temperature higher than the boiling point of a liquid, the vapor pressure is supposed to be higher than atmospheric pressure, which is not possible in an open system.

Jul 29, 2010 · Looking at liquid-gas equilibria, then sure, the vapor pressure of the liquid would be higher than it's corresponding gas vapor above it at the boiling point and vice versa-but you …

Jan 13, 2012 · Can someone please clarify the relationship between vapor pressure, boiling point and Heat of vaporization. Please explain it conceptually. I know that the boiling point is the …

Jul 20, 2009 · The vapor pressure of a liquid is the pressure at which vaporization and condensation are at equilibrium. Higher vapor pressure implies weaker intermolecular forces, …

May 24, 2011 · Something with a high boiling point is made up of molecules that are relatively happy to be in liquid phase. It takes more energy to get up to the point where you're knocking …

Mar 27, 2006 · If ammonia is a gas at room temperature, why is its vapor pressure greater than atmospheric pressure (760 torr)? I thought things boiled when vapor pressure equaled atm. So …

Oct 15, 2007 · Remember that boiling point is when vapor pressure equals or exceeds the atmospheric pressure. When you heat water, you increase its vapor pressure until it …
