how does the change in temperature affect the vapour pressure of a liquid explain with the help of a graph
Answers
Explanation:
Vapor Pressure
The Macroscopic View
The vapor pressure of a liquid is the equilibrium pressure of a vapor above its liquid (or solid); that is, the pressure of the vapor resulting from evaporation of a liquid (or solid) above a sample of the liquid (or solid) in a closed container. Examples:
substancevapor pressure at 25oCdiethyl ether0.7 atmbromine0.3 atmethyl alcohol0.08 atmwater0.03 atm
The vapor pressure of a liquid varies with its temperature, as the following graph shows for water. The line on the graph shows the boiling temperature for water.

As the temperature of a liquid or solid increases its vapor pressure also increases. Conversely, vapor pressure decreases as the temperature decreases.
The vapor pressure of a liquid can be measured in a variety of ways. A simple measurement involves injecting a little of the liquid into a closed flask connected to a manometer. Click here for an illustration.
The Microscopic View
When a solid or a liquid evaporates to a gas in a closed container, the molecules cannot escape.
Some of the gas molecules will eventually strike the condensed phase and condense back into it.
When the rate of condensation of the gas becomes equal to the rate of evaporation of the liquid or solid, the amount of gas, liquid and/or solid no longer changes.
The gas in the container is in equilibrium with the liquid or solid.

The pressure exerted by the gas in equilibrium with a solid or liquid in a closed container at a given temperature is called the vapor pressure.
Factors That Affect Vapor Pressure
Surface Area: the surface area of the solid or liquid in contact with the gas has no effect on the vapor pressure.

Types of Molecules: the types of molecules that make up a solid or liquid determine its vapor pressure. If the intermolecular forces between molecules are:
relatively strong, the vapor pressure will be relatively low.
relatively weak, the vapor pressure will be relatively high.

ethyl ether (C4H10O)
Pvapor (25oC) = 520 torr
The relatively weak dipole-dipole forces and London dispersion forces between molecules results in a much higher vapor pressure compared to ethyl alcohol.ethyl alcohol (C2H6O)
Pvapor (25oC) = 75 torr
Although dipole-dipole forces and London dispersion forces also exist between ethyl alcohol molecules, the strong hydrogen bonding interactions are responsible for the much lower vapor pressure compared to ethyl ether.
Temperature: at a higher temperature, more molecules have enough energy to escape from the liquid or solid. At a lower temperature, fewer molecules have sufficient energy to escape from the liquid or solid.

Answer:
The vapor pressure of a liquid varies with its temperature, as the following graph shows for water. The line on the graph shows the boiling temperature for water. As the temperature of a liquid or solid increases its vapor pressure also increases. Conversely, vapor pressure decreases as the temperature decreases.
