For example, when the temperature of liquid water is raised in the previous case, the motion of its molecules is increased, the rate at which they leave its surface becomes greater, the vapor tension increases, and hence a greater concentration of vapor...

...two opposing tendencies. Thus, for example, when the temperature of a liquid is raised, the motion of its molecules is increased, the rate at which they...equilibrium in which a higher vapor pressure exists. In the preceding illustration, the evaporating tendency was favored by a rise in temperature. As an... | |

...vapour pressure of a liquid becomes equal to I atm is called its normal boiling point. Explanation. When the temperature of a liquid is raised, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases, and more molecules are able to overcome the intermolecular forces. As a result,... | |
