Question

A sample of water in equilibrium with its vapor in a closed 0.6-L container has a vapor pressure of 23.8 torr at 25°C. The container's volume is increased to 2 L at constant temperature and the liquid/vapor equilibrium is reestablished. What is the vapor pressure in torr? Enter to 1 decimal place.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

vapor pressure P_1 = 0.6 L

Volume = 2L

Temperature remain constant

No change in vapor pressure. This is because vapor pressure is calculated from the temperature of the liquid and not the volume of the container. Since the temperature is constant therefore vapor pressure remian constant..
