A. A vapor is termed as a saturated vapor, if its partial pressure equals its equilibrium vapor pressure.
B. A vapor whose partial pressure is less than its equilibrium vapor pressure, is termed as a 'superheated vapor'.
C. The temperature at which a vapor is saturated is termed as the boiling point.
D. The difference between the existing temperature of a vapor and its saturation temperature (i.e. dew point) is called its 'degree of superheat'.
Correct Answer
The temperature at which a vapor is saturated is termed as the boiling point.

1. What is the total pressure exerted by a mixture of 0.45 kg mole of benzene, 0.44 kg mole of toluene and 0.23 kg mole of o-xylene at 100°C, if their vapor pressures at 100°C are 1340, 560 and 210 mmHg respectively?
Correct Answer: flow rates & composition both are time dependent.
8. At 100°C, water and methylcyclohexane both have vapour pressures of 1 atm. Also at 100°C, the latent heats of vaporisation of these compounds are 40.63 kJ/mole for water and 31.55 kJ/mole for methylcyclohexane. The vapour pressure of water at 150°C is 4.69 atm. At 150°C, the vapour pressure of methylcyclohexane would be expected to be
