It is pressure exerted by vapours at:
Correct answer: C. Dynamic equilibrium
- A. Static equilibrium
- B. Dynamic equipment
- C. Dynamic equilibrium
- D. None
Explanation
A state in which the forward and reverse reactions of a chemical equation are happening at the same rate.The concentrations of the reactants and products do not change over time.The system is stable, but it is not static.The equilibrium can be disrupted by changes in temperature, pressure, or concentration. The vapour pressure of a liquid is a pressure exerted by the vapours of the liquid in dynamic equilibrium with the liquid at a given temperature.

About Evaporation, Boiling Point and Vapour Pressure
Evaporation is the escape of higher-energy molecules from a liquid surface, while vapour pressure is the pressure exerted by vapour in equilibrium with that liquid. The topic distinguishes evaporation from boiling and relates both to temperature, intermolecular forces, surface area, atmospheric pressure and the boiling point.

A jar contains a gas and a few drops of water at 'T' Kelvin temperature. The pressure in the jar is 830 mm of Hg. The temperature of the jar is reduced by 1%. The vapour pressure of water at two temperatures are 30 and 25 mm of Hg respectively. Calculate the new pressure in the jar?
At higher altitude, the boiling point of water is less than 100°C. This is because of:
Boiling needs _.
Coversion of liquid to vapours is called:
Vapour pressure depends on:
