a) Calculate the slope of the line. Show all your work and include units.
b) Write one sentence explaining the meaning of the slope of this line in the context of this graph. Follow the general outline below and substitute using the correct variables and units for this graph.
As the (x-variable) increases by one (units of x), the (y-variable) (increases/decreases) by (slope with units of y).
c) What is the boiling point of water when the atmospheric pressure is 757 mm Hg? Use your graph to answer this question
a).
Plotting the given data by taking the boiling point (dependent variable) in y axis and atmospheric pressure (independent variable) in x- axis, we arrive at the following graph.
Least square fit equation for the linear relationship between atmospheric pressure and the boiling point yields the equation of a line given by
Hence, the slope of the line is 0.0368 in the units of .
Note that this can also be approximated by calculating the rise/run of the data.
Since the relationship is a near straight line, we get very similar result for slope from both the methods, but the graphical method is more accurate representation of the data.
Hence, the slope of the graph is
b).
As the atmospheric pressure increase by 1 mm of Hg, the boiling point increases by 0.0368 .
c).
Using the equation of the line for the graph,
Now, at a pressure of 757 mm Hg, we replace x = 757 in the above equation to get the value of y (i.e. the boiling point).
Hence, the boiling point of water at 757 mm Hg pressure is about 99.85 degree Celsius.

"Vapor Pressure of Water" assignment: VAPOR PRESSURE OF WATER INTRODUCTION All liquids exist in equilibrium with the vapor state. As temperature increases, this equilibrium shifts more and more in favor of the vapor until one reaches the boiling point, at which all liquid is converted to gas. The pressure exerted by the vapor over the liquid is known as its vapor pressure and is a function of temperature. Boiling occurs at the temperature at which the vapor pressure is equal...
II Revi Part A The vapor pressure of a substance describes how readily molecules at the surface of the substance enter the gaseous phase. At the boiling point of a liquid, the liquid's vapor pressure is equal to or greater than the atmospheric pressure exerted on the surface of the liquid. Since the atmospheric pressure at higher elevations is lower than at sea level, the boiling point of water decreases as the elevation increases. The atmospheric pressure at sea level...
Which statement about atmospheric pressure is false? Select one: a. Atmospheric pressure prevents water in lakes, rivers, and oceans from boiling away. b. The warmer the air, the lower the atmospheric pressure. c. As air becomes thinner, its density decreases. d. With an increase in altitude, atmospheric pressure increases as well. e. Air actually has weight.
