The vapor pressure of a liquid is the equilibrium pressure of gas molecules from that liquid (i.e.‚ the results of evaporation) above the liquid itself. A glass of water placed in an open room will evaporate completely (and thus never reach equilibrium); however‚ if a cover is placed on the glass‚ the space above the liquid will eventually contain a constant amount of water vapor. How much water vapor is present depends on the temperature‚ but not on the amount of liquid that is present at equilibrium

It’s not about the length of a paper or the pre-writing‚ it’s about depth and giving the right information.

First‚ colligative properties are “those of a solution that depend solely on the number of solute particles present‚ not the identity of those solute particles. These properties include: vapor pressure lowering‚ boiling point elevation‚ freezing point depression‚ and osmotic pressure” (p. 17 lab manual). In this experiment
