When the water's vapor pressure reaches 14.7 pounds per square inch, with typical atmospheric pressure, the water converts to steam. Why is vapor pressure important with gasoline?

A SURVEY of the literature for the vapour pressure of hydrogen tritium oxide (HTO) revealed one reference only 1. No values were quoted for the vapour pressure at any temperature, but the authors ...

Vapour pressure, methanol/gasoline distribution in the vapour phase and enthalpy of evaporation are all calculated using explicit equations. Constants needed for the equations are given for one M85 ...

Jake Ryks provides "firefighter" definitions of vapor pressure, flammability, toxicity and other technical terms to drill down to practical knowledge for hazmat response.

DIRECT measurement of the vapour-pressure of solutions for the estimation of molecular weights has never been much used, Raoult's barometric method being too cumbersome for general use. A simple ...

What is causing the heat dome in Texas? In low pressure systems, the rising air can carry water vapor into the colder reaches of the atmosphere, where it can condense and turn into rain.

Infrared readings from a space telescope confirm that water vapor is rising from the surface of Ceres, and that discovery is likely to heat up interest in a strange world that's the biggest ...
