The vapor pressure of a liquid is defined as the pressure exerted by the molecules that escapes from the liquid to form a separate vapor phase above the liquid surface.

The pressure exerted by the vapor phase is called the

The pressure depends on the temperature.

If a fluid consist of more than one component (a solution), the component with

Temperature and Vapor or Saturation Pressure for some common Fluids

At atmospheric pressure the saturation temperature of
