Two containers A and B are partly filled with water and closed. The volume of A is twice that of Band it contains half the amount of water in B. If both are at the same temperature, the water vapour in the containers will have pressure in the ratio of (a) 1: 2 (b) 1: 1 (c) 2: 1 (d) 4: 1

(b)

Vapour pressure does not depend on the amount of substance. It depends on the temperature alone.

Dear student,
 
The answer to this question will be (b) 1 : 1
This is due to the fact that vapour pressure of a liquid is a property of the liquid, and its temperature only.
 
Thanks and regards,
