For a given system, vapor pressure can be defined as the pressure exerted by the vapor phase in equilibrium with the condensed phase.
In this case, as water sits in an open beaker it tends to evaporate thereby forming water vapor. This vapor phase then exerts a pressure over the liquid water, which is termed as the vapor pressure of water at that temperature and pressure. As water continues to evaporate, more and more molecules escape into the vapor phase which thereby increases the vapor pressure.
Ans: The vapor pressure of water increases as the water evaporates.
Answer: radon (atomic mass 222 amu
Explanation:
To calculate the rate of diffusion of gas, we use Graham's Law.
This law states that the rate of effusion or diffusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas. The equation given by this law follows:
atomic mass of krypton= 83.8 amu
atomic mass of argon= 39.95 amu
atomic mass of xenon = 131.3 amu
atomic mass of radon= 222 amu
Thus as atomic mass of radon is highest, its rate of diffusion is slowest.
4 x 1000 so 4 kilometers are equal to 4000 meters
Yes, it does, just like any other sugar or substance
