Which of the following describes how vapor pressure and kinetic energy are related

Which of the following describes how vapor pressure and kinetic energy are related?

If kinetic energy of the particles is increased, vapor pressure will also increase.

If kinetic energy of the particles is increased, vapor pressure will decrease.

If kinetic energy of the particles is decreased, vapor pressure will increase.

Kinetic energy and vapor pressure are not related.

10 Points for correct answer...

the answer is the first choice: If kinetic energy of the particles is increased, vapor pressure will also increase.

vapor pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by gas particles that escaped from the a liquid, if the kinetic energy is increase, meaning the temperature is raise, more gas particles will escape from the liquid, resulting in more gas particles escaping the liquid and a greater vapor pressure
