What type of property is vapour pressure?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A property dependent on temperature
Vapour pressure is an intensive equilibrium property whose value for a given liquid depends strongly on temperature and liquid composition. It does not simply increase because more liquid is placed in the vessel, provided liquid remains present and equilibrium conditions are reached. Container shape and colour do not determine it.
