1.	A liquit is in equilibrium with its vapour in a sealed container at a fixed temperature. The volume of the container is suddenly increased. How do rate of evaporation and condensation change initially?
Answer» Solution :The rate of evaporation REMAINS constance TEMPERATURE. But the rate of condensation will decrease INITIALLY because there are fewer MOLECULES per unit volume in the vapour PHASE.
