Question
Chapter 11, Problem 36RQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The equilibrium vapor pressure is to be defined and the reason behind calling the equilibrium involved adynamic equilibrium is to be interpreted.
Concept Introduction:
The tendency of a liquid to escape in the form of vapor is known as evaporation. It can be defined as the conversion of a liquid into vapor.
Evaporation of a surface varies with the temperature, and this can be determined by changing the temperature to a specific value.
The equilibrium vapor pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by a vapor that is in the equilibrium with its liquid surface.

- It is a hot summer day, and Chris wants a glass of lemonade. There is none in the refrigerator, so a new batch is prepared from freshly squeezed lemons. When finished, there are 175g of lemonade at 23C. That is not a very refreshing temperature, so it must be cooled with ice. But Chris doesnt like ice in lemonade Therefore, just enough ice is used to cool the lemonade to 5C. Of course, the ice will melt and reach the same temperature. If the ice starts melting at 8C, and if the specific heat of lemonade is the same as that of water, how many grams of ice does Chris use? Assume there is no heat transfer to or from the surroundings.
