Explanation: Streak is the color of the powder of a mineral. To do a streak test, you scrape the mineral across an unglazed porcelain plate. The plate is harder than many minerals, causing the minerals to leave a streak of powder on the plate.
At the boiling point, external pressure is equal to the vapor pressure of water. Therefore, the vapor pressure of water at an ecternal pressure of 404 kPa is equal to 404 kPa as well. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
