5.2 The Liquid State Boiling Point Boiling point - the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure
{"Image DocumentName": "Boiling Point 5.2 The Liquid State", "Image ImageDescription": "Boiling point - the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure. Normal boiling point - temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to 1 atm. What happens when you go to a mountain where the atmospheric pressure is lower than 1 atm? The boiling point lowers. Boiling point is dependant on the intermolecular forces. Polar molecules have higher b.p. than nonpolar molecules. 5.2 The Liquid State.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
