✔ 最佳答案

1.
The answer is a.

The higher the temperature, the higher is the vapour pressure of a substance.

=====
2.

The answer is a.

Vapour pressure is affected by temperature only. The higher the temperature, the higher is the vapour pressure of a substance.

=====
3.
The answer is a.

The question should be:
”What is the vapour pressure of a liquid at its normal boiling temperature?”

A liquid boils when the vapour pressure of the liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure. The normal atmospheric pressure is 1 atm.

=====
4.
The answer is d.

A liquid boils when the vapour pressure of the liquid is equal to 1 atm.

At 60oC, the vapour pressure of the liquid is 0.92 atm. The higher the temperature, the higher is the vapour pressure of the liquid. When the vapour pressure reaches 1 atm, the liquid boils. Therefore, a temperature higher than 60oC is expected, and 65oC is the only temperature fulfills the expectation.
