Chapter 14, Problem 32QAP
If you've ever opened a bottle of rubbing alcohol or other solvent on a warm day, you may have heard a little “whoosh” as the vapor that had built up above the liquid escapes. Describe on a microscopic basis how a vapor pressure builds up in a closed container above a liquid. What processes in the container give rise to this phenomenon?
