Reid vapor pressure

Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP) is a way to measure how easily a liquid turns into a gas. It measures the pressure of a vapor that builds up when a liquid is put into a sealed container. A high RVP means that the liquid changes into a gas very easily. For example, gasoline has a high RVP because it can easily turn into a gas and make your car run. On the other hand, honey has a low RVP because it doesn't turn into a gas very easily.
