I'm not totally sure this topic should be placed in this forum, since it is not specifically solid state.
Anyways, my question is simply why is there a correlation between vapor pressure and the boiling point of a substance, I would have thought that the boiling point would be at any temperature that the kinetic energy of the interior of the liquid begins to become gaseous.
Is it because the vapor must stop cooling the liquid at the atmospheric pressure.
