the normal boiling pt of each liquid is the temperature at which the liquid’s equilibrium vapor pressure equals

A

37
Q

38
Q

if you were to carefully measure the temperature of a boiling liquid and its vapor you would find that they are at the

A

same constant temperature

39
Q

the temperature at the boiling point remains constant despite the

A

vaporize; boiling point at constant pressure

42
Q

the magnitude of the molar enthalpy of vaporization is a measure of the

A

attraction between particles of the liquid

43
Q

the stronger this attraction (between particles of a liquid) is, the more energy that is required to overcome it, which results in a
