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.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapour_pressure_of_water) As seen on the site, even ice possesses some small vapour pressure. Liquid water expresses a vapour pressure that increases logarithmically with temperature; at
