Evaporation of water can be represented as water + heat ----> water vapours:
i) With increase in pressure- the equilibrium tend to shift in direction where there is decrease in the vol. i.e. towards left.
ii) with increase in temperature- the equilibrium shifts to right as it is an endothermic reaction.
