Q: What is the term for the temperature at which a liquid's vapor pressure equals the external pressure?
Solution:
The boiling point is defined as the temperature at which a liquid's vapor pressure equals the external pressure.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what vapor pressure is. It is the pressure exerted by a vapor in equilibrium with its liquid or solid form.
Step 2: Know that every liquid has a vapor pressure that increases with temperature.
Step 3: Learn that external pressure is the pressure surrounding the liquid, like atmospheric pressure.
Step 4: Realize that when the vapor pressure of the liquid becomes equal to the external pressure, the liquid starts to boil.
Step 5: Conclude that this specific temperature is called the boiling point.
