    $\begingroup$ The EQUILIBRIUM vapor pressure depends on the chemical potential of the liquid. A pure liquid with less exposure will establish the same VP but take longer to attain it. There is an effect for very small droplet size[nanodrops] where the VP is actually higher than for larger drops or bulk material. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ If the liquids are being stirred continuously... then you could just as well have them in two smaller containers and there would be no difference. $\endgroup$
