Explanation:

Relation between pressure of water and its droplet is as follows.

           ln (\frac{p}{p_{o}}) = \frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}

where,   p = pressure of droplet

          p_{o} = water pressure in given temperature

          \gamma = 7.99 \times 10^{-3}

           M = Molecular Weight in Kg/Mol (0.018 for water)

            r = radius in meters

     \rho = density of water in Kg/m^{3} (1000 kg/m^{3})

           R = ideal gas constant (8.31)

           T = temperature in Kelvin

(a)   We will calculate the value of p as follows.

           p = e^{\frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}} \times p_{o}

              = e^{\frac{2 \times 0.07199 \times 0.018}{1.7 \times 10^{-8} \times 1000 \times 8.31 \times 298 K} \times 25.2

              = 26.8 torr

(b)  And, vapor pressure of spherical water droplets of radius 2.0 \mu m or 2 \times 10^{-6} m

             p = e^{\frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}} \times p_{o}

              = e^{\frac{2 \times 0.07199 \times 0.018}{2 \times 10^{-6} \times 1000 \times 8.31 \times 298 K} \times 25.2

              = 25.2 torr

The chemical elements display periodicity when they're arranged according toQuestion 10 options:A) atomic mass.B) atomic volume.
BartSMP [9]

The periodic table is an ordered way of representing chemical elements. They were ordered according to their atomic number, remember that the atomic number corresponds to the number of protons of the elements.

So the answer will be option C) Atomic Number
