Chapter 5, Problem 5.78P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The compounds CH4 and H2O have the same molecular weight and the compound which have higher vapor pressure at the given room temperature should be discussed.

Concept Introduction:

When the vapour of the compound exerts a pressure which is in the solid state or liquid state being in the thermodynamic equilibrium at the given temperature is known as the vapour pressure.

Students have asked these similar questions
Methane, CH4 (boiling point -1610C) and water, H2O have about the same molecular weight.  Which has the higher vapor pressure at room temperature? Explain.
Cyclopentane has a higher boiling point than pentane even though both compounds have the same number of carbons (49 °C vs. 36 °C). Can you suggest a reason for this phenomenon?
2- Of the following substances, the one with the lowest vapor pressure at 0 ° C is: A) CH3COCH3 AcetoneB) CH2Cl2 ( DICLOMETHANE)C) CH4 (METHANE)D) CH3CH2OH( ETHANOL)E) (CH3CH2)2O ETHER ETHYL
