We investigate the equilibrium of a liquid droplet in its vapor, and – at the same time – we discuss the equilibrium conditions for a vapor bubble surrounded by liquid. Fig. 11.1 shows the systems to be considered and introduces some notation. Droplets and bubbles are considered as spherical,
p
is the pressure on the outside and
T
the temperature. In some instances we divide the page along a vertical line; in such cases the formulae to the left of the line refer to droplets, those to the right refer to bubbles.
