Q. What happens to water's vapor pressure when heated?
Answer: It increases
Notes: Vapor pressure of water increases as its temperature rises. At 25°C, water's vapor pressure is approximately 23.8 mmHg, while at 100°C it reaches 760 mmHg. When a liquid is heated, kinetic energy of molecules grows, allowing more to escape as vapor and thus increasing vapor pressure.
