How to Evaluate Vapour Pressure?

Vapour Pressure evaluator uses Vapour Pressure of Solution = Mole Fraction of Solvent in Solution*Vapour Pressure of Solvent to evaluate the Vapour Pressure of Solution, Vapour Pressure refers to the pressure exerted by a vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases (solid or liquid) at a given temperature in a closed system. Vapour Pressure of Solution is denoted by Ps symbol.

How to evaluate Vapour Pressure using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Vapour Pressure, enter Mole Fraction of Solvent in Solution s) & Vapour Pressure of Solvent (P′s) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Vapour Pressure

What is the formula to find Vapour Pressure?
The formula of Vapour Pressure is expressed as Vapour Pressure of Solution = Mole Fraction of Solvent in Solution*Vapour Pressure of Solvent. Here is an example- 25470 = 0.9*28300.
How to calculate Vapour Pressure?
With Mole Fraction of Solvent in Solution s) & Vapour Pressure of Solvent (P′s) we can find Vapour Pressure using the formula - Vapour Pressure of Solution = Mole Fraction of Solvent in Solution*Vapour Pressure of Solvent.
Can the Vapour Pressure be negative?
No, the Vapour Pressure, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Vapour Pressure?
Vapour Pressure is usually measured using the Pascal[Pa] for Pressure. Kilopascal[Pa], Bar[Pa], Pound Per Square Inch[Pa] are the few other units in which Vapour Pressure can be measured.
