An example of
Explanation:
For a given temperature, a condition of equilibrium exists between gaseous water molecules and the condensed phase, i.e.
The extent of equilibrium is conveniently measured by the partial pressure of
See this site. As seen on the site, even ice possesses some small vapour pressure. Liquid water expresses a vapour pressure that increases logarithmically with temperature; at
