A: Vapour pressure of the liquid increases with increase in temperature.
R: At elevated temperature kinetic energy of the liquid molecules increases.
R: At elevated temperature kinetic energy of the liquid molecules increases.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A
Option A (If both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A) is correct because the kinetic energy increase at higher temperatures allows more liquid molecules to overcome intermolecular forces and enter the vapor phase, thus increasing vapor pressure.
