The vapor pressure of the jar with a large amount of water and the jar with a small amount of water is the same. Vapor pressure is an intrinsic property. This means that this property is not dependent on the amount of the substance. Vapor pressure is dependent only on temperature and since the temperature is the same for both jars, their vapor pressures are also the same.
