A liquid is in equilibrium with its vapour in a sealed container at a fixed temoperature. The volume of the container is suddenly increased. What is the initial effect of the change on vapour pressyre?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Initially, the vapour pressure will decrease because the same amount of vapour will be distributed in larger volume.
