Question

Pick out the wrong statement:

a.

A vapor is termed as a saturated vapor, if its partial pressure equals its equilibrium vapor pressure.

b.

A vapor whose partial pressure is less than its equilibrium vapor pressure, is termed as a 'superheated vapor'.

c.

The temperature at which a vapor is saturated is termed as the boiling point.

d.

The difference between the existing temperature of a vapor and its saturation temperature (i.e. dew point) is called its 'degree of superheat'.

Answer: (c).The temperature at which a vapor is saturated is termed as the boiling point.
