Find the pressure of saturated vapour as a function of temperature p(tau) if a temperature T_0 its pressure equals p_0 . Assume that : the specific latent heat of vaporization q is independent of T , the specific volume of liquid is negligible as compared to that of vapour, saturated vapour obeys the equation of state for an ideal gas. Investigate under what conditions these assumptions are permissible.

A small amount of water and its saturated vapour are enclosed in a vessel at a temperature t = 100^@C . How much (in per cent) will the mass of the saturated vapour increase if the temperature of the system goes up by Delta T = 1.5 K ? Assume that the vapour is an ideal gas and the specific volume of water is negligible as compared to that vapour.

    Isn't the result of the previous problem in contradiction with the fact that the ideal gas isochore in p-T coordinates is represented by a linear graph, while the iso chore of saturated vapour is nonlinear. ( see 35.3 Fig. 35.2)?

    A certain mass of saturated water vapour is contained in a cylindrical vessel under a weightless piston at one atmosphric pressure. The piston is slowly lowered till 0.7g of vapour gets condensed. The volume under thepiston is now only 1/5 th of the original volume. Find the original mass of the vapour. Neglect volume of the liquid formed. What is the temperature of the vapour?
