Solution

The vapor pressure of a liquid increases with temperature. The liquid with the lower boiling point will have a higher vapor pressure at a given temperature below both boiling points.

Here, Liquid A has a boiling point of 140°C and Liquid B has a boiling point of 180°C.

Since 90°C is below both boiling points and Liquid A has the lower boiling point, Liquid A will have a higher vapor pressure at 90°C.
