since at boing condition of a liquid the vapour pressure is equal to external pressure than how the vapour can rise up how the vapourisation occurs??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u mean excess pressure or external(atmospheric pressure)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

external pressure... generally atmospheric

OpenStudy (anonymous):

at boiling point it just starts to boil howerver for escape of gas particles,the water vapour may escape with uniform speed leaving the system in equilibrium(no forces acting)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the presure due to vapours upward is equal to external pressur at boiling condition thn hw the vapours can escape .....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isn't the force aplied by the vapour equal to force due to extrnal thn hw it will leave the place...
