  Vapor pressure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vapor pressure is the pressure of a vapor in equilibrium with its non-vapor phases.
This is the equilibrium vapor pressure or saturation vapor pressure of that substance at that temperature.
In the case of an equilibrium solid, such as a crystal, this can be defined as the pressure when the rate of sublimation of a solid matches the rate of deposition of its vapor phase.

At any given pressure, the boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the substance ''in liquid form'' equals the total ambient pressure.
Thus, at any given pressure, the sublimation point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the substance ''in solid form'' equals the ambient pressure.
It is the vapor pressure usually found over liquid water, and is a dynamic equilibrium where condensation of water equals the evaporation of water.

 Vapor pressure of a pure liquid
The equilibrium vapor temperature of the liquid (in this case, water) is read with a thermocouple circuit, the measuring junction of which is placed in the vapor of the boiling liquid at the top of a Cottrell pump.
The voltage output from the pressure transducer will correspond to the pressure difference between the system and atmospheric pressure, so it will be necessary to record both the offset voltage from the transducer before the experiment begins, and the barometric pressure from the laboratory barometer.
Once the water has begun to boil, be sure that the pressure and temperature remain relatively constant (for a period of about 5 minutes to ensure thermal equilibrium) and collect a pair of data which are a voltage corresponding to the pressure, and the celcius temperature.

After waiting for a time period sufficient for the water to have reached equilibrium with it vapor it was discovered that the vapor pressure of water was less than the equilibrium vapor pressure.
The equilibrium vapor pressure for water at any given temperature is the water vapor pressure at which the rate of condensation of water vapor equals the rate of evaporation of the liquid.
As more water molecules enter the vapor phase the vapor pressure of water increases until there are sufficient molecules colliding with the liquid surface and condensing to equal the rate of evaporation.

But in reality, the saturation (or equilibrium) vapor pressure for a water surface is a function not only of temperature but also of the curvature of a water surface, owing to the interfacial energy (a.k.a.
A crude explanation is that the pressure inside the droplet due to surface tension is inversely proportional to the droplet radius; therefore, with decreasing radius, the energetics increasingly favor the escape of water molecules from the droplet and oppose the return of molecules from the vapor phase.
In the case of a soluble particle, the required vapor pressure for condensation is greatly reduced by the so-called "solute effect", which is also the reason why salt and sugar tend to clump when the air is humid.

 Vapor Pressure
At this point the vapor is said to be saturated, and the pressure of that vapor (usually expressed in mmHg) is called the saturated vapor pressure.
The temperature at which the vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure is called the boiling point.
The boiling point is defined as the temperature at which the saturated vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the surrounding atmospheric pressure.

 Chapter Seven
The equilibrium vapor pressure of a liquid is dependent upon the particular kind of molecules composing the liquid.
The effect of increased pressure upon the solubility of a gas in a liquid is illustrated by the behavior of carbonated beverages.
It should be emphasized that the extent to which the vapor pressure of a solvent is lowered and the boiling point is elevated depends upon the number of solute particles present in a given amount of solvent and not upon the mass or size of the particles.

The term "vapor" is applied to the gas of any compound that would normally be found as a liquid at room temperature and pressure.
Over time an equilibrium will be established so that the rate at which molecules evaporate will be equal to the rate at which the gas molecules return to the liquid.
Now that we understand how vapor pressure works, it is very easy to recognize that vapor pressure should be closely related to intermolecular forces.

 Vapor Pressure above a Liquid   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
For a liquid to vaporize, the kinetic energy of the molecules has to overcome the intermolecular forces.
The value of the equilibrium vapor pressure depends on the attractive forces between particles of the liquid and on the temperature of the liquid.
The presence of gases other than vapor above a liquid does not affect the kinetic energy of molecules inside or outside the liquid and does not affect the magnitude of the intermolecular forces in the liquid.

When a liquid is spread over a large surface area a higher fraction of its molecules are in the surface layer and thus it shows a higher rate of evaporation.
The equilibrium vapor pressure of a liquid is the vapor pressure at which the rate of evaporation is equal to the rate of condensation.
The equilibrium vapor pressure remains the same since the increase in rate of evaporation is equal to the increase in rate of condensation.
