- Vapor pressure is the pressure inside a closed container when a liquid is in equilibrium with its own gas phase so the rate of evaporation is equal to the rate of condensation. When a non-volatile solute is dissolved in a volatile solvent, the vapor pressure of the solvent is reduced.

Apr 24, 2021 · Vapor pressure (or vapour pressure) is the equilibrium pressure of a vapor above its liquid or solid state in a closed container. In this type of closed system, some molecules of a liquid or solid have enough kinetic energy to escape at the surface and enter the vapor (gas) phase.
Vapour pressure, also known as vapour equilibrium pressure, can be defined as the pressure exerted (in a system featuring thermodynamic equilibrium) by a vapour with its condensed phases (solid or liquid) in a closed system at a given temperature.

Feb 5, 2019 · This example problem demonstrates how to use Raoult's Law to calculate the vapor pressure of two volatile solutions mixed together. Raoult's Law Example. What is the expected vapor pressure when 58.9 g of hexane (C 6 H 14) is mixed with 44.0 g of benzene (C 6 H 6) at 60.0 °C? Given: Vapor pressure of pure hexane at 60 °C is 573 torr.
Jan 7, 2023 · Vapor pressure is a property of a liquid based on the strength of its intermolecular forces. A liquid with weak intermolecular forces evaporates more easily and has a high vapor pressure. A liquid with stronger intermolecular forces does not evaporate easily and thus has a lower vapor pressure.
