The Kelvin equation describes the relationship between the vapor pressure of a liquid droplet (or a bubble) and its radius, accounting for the effects of surface tension. It is particularly important in the study of thermodynamics and physical chemistry, especially when dealing with phase transitions and small systems such as droplets and nanoparticles.
