Vapor pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by vapors or gas on the surface of a liquid.

Hence, more is the vapor pressure more will be the vapors formed. As a result, more will be the vapor pressure of the substance.

Covalent bonds are the bonds formed due to sharing of electrons. These are weak in nature as compared to hydrogen bonds. This is because hydrogen bonds have partial ionic character which makes it stronger than covalent bonds.

Intermolecular forces are the forces present within the molecules and not the interatomic force.

Therefore, we can conclude that true statement is vapor pressure increases with temperature.
