Question

2 multiple choice 1 point
when a liquid evaporates readily, it has
○ few molecules in the gas phase
○ a low vapor pressure
○ a high vapor pressure
○ a high boiling point

Explanation:

Vapor pressure measures a liquid's tendency to evaporate. A liquid that evaporates readily has a high tendency to form gas-phase molecules, meaning it has a high vapor pressure. Low vapor pressure means slow evaporation, few gas-phase molecules would come from slow evaporation, and a high boiling point correlates with low evaporation tendency.

Answer:

a high vapor pressure
