How do you differentiate between a gas and a vapour ?
Vapour phase is not a state of matter. Vapour is a substance in the gas phase at a temperature lower than its critical point. it means that the vapour can be condensed to a liquid by increasing the pressure on it without reducing the temperature.
Gas is the state of matter distinguished from the solid and liquid state. Gas has relatively low density and viscosity, having great expansion and contraction which change with pressure and temperature.
