Two liquids `X` and `Y` boil at `110^(@)C` and `130^(@)C`, respectively. Which one of them has higher vapour pressure at `50^(@)C`?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which liquid, X or Y, has a higher vapor pressure at 50°C, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between boiling point and volatility - The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure. - A lower boiling point indicates that a liquid is more volatile, meaning it can evaporate more easily at lower temperatures. ### Step 2: Compare the boiling points of liquids X and Y - Liquid X boils at 110°C. ...
