Answer to Question #327975 in General Chemistry for Tesha

Question

Illustrate the phase diagram of a substance given with the following points: a

triple point at 0.70 atm and 80 ºC; a normal freezing point at 100 ºC; a normal

boiling point at 350 ºC; and a critical point at 1.6 atm and 810 ºC. For this,

complete the following:

1. Roughly sketch the phase diagram, using units of atmosphere and degree

Celsius. Label the area 1, 2, and 3, and points T and C on the diagram.

2. Describe what one would see at pressures and temperatures above 1.25 atm

and 300 ºC.

3. Describe the phase changes from 100 ºC to 200 ºC at 1.5 atm.

4. What exists in a system that is at 1 atm and 100 ºC?

5. What exists in a system that is at 1 atm and 325 ºC?
