A. increases non-linearly with measuring temperature B. increases linearly with increasing temperature C. decreases linearly with increasing temperature D. decreases non-linearly ith measuring temperature
Correct Answer: A
Explanation
The vapor pressure of any substance increases non-linearly with temperature, often described by the Clausius–Clapeyron relation. As the temperature of a liquid or solid increases its vapor pressure also increases. Conversely, vapor pressure decreases as the temperature decreases. i.e. vapor pressure is directly proportional to temperature
