What will be the correct order of vapour pressure of water, acetone and ether at 30^@C. Given that among these compounds, water has maximum boiling point and ether has minimum boiling point ?

Answer»

WATER `lt` Ether `lt` Acetone
Water `lt` Acetone `lt` Ether
Ether `lt` Acetone `lt` Water
Acetone `lt` Ether `lt` Water

Solution :The given COMPOUNDS are
`{:("Water,","Acetone,","Ether"),("(Maximum b.p.)",,"(Minimum b.p.)"):}`
More the boiling point, LOWER is the vapour PRESSURE of the solvent. So, the correct order of vapour pressure will be
Water `lt` Acetone `lt` Ether
