in a closes container, the vapor pressure will depend on the TEMPERATURE of the liquid....

what about in an open container, the vapor pressure will depend on the Pressure? atm pressure maybe

yea i believe in an open container the vp will depend on the atmospheric pressure because once the pressure of the liquid reaches atmospheric pressure the liquid will start to boil/vaporize...in a closed container I believe the vp will depend on the temp because they are directly related...when the temp increases so will the pressure and therefore the vp will be affected...
