Question

You have two bottles of water. One bottle is left outside in the sun for two hours. The other is left in an air-conditioned room for the same amount of time. What would you expect to observe after the two hours?

The bottle left outside will have lower vapor pressure than the bottle from the room.

The bottle left outside will have the same vapor pressure as the bottle inside the room because they both contain water.

The bottle left outside will have higher vapor pressure than the bottle from the room.

No change to either bottle.
