- Elemental carbon has one gas phase, one liquid phase, and two different solid phases, as shown in the phase diagram: (a) On the phase diagram, label the gas and liquid regions. (b) Graphite is the most stable phase of carbon at normal conditions. On the phase diagram, label the graphite phase. (c) If graphite at normal conditions is heated to 2500 K while the pressure is increased to 1010 Pa, it is converted into diamond. Label the diamond phase. (d) Circle each triple point on the phase diagram. (e) In what phase does carbon exist at 5000 K and 108 Pa? (f) If the temperature of a sample of carbon increases from 3000 K to 5000 K at a constant pressure of 106 Pa, which phase transition occurs, if any?arrow_forwardSubstance B is hard, does not conduct electricity, and melts at 1200 C.

- On the basis of the description given, classify each of these solids as molecular, metallic, ionic, network, or amorphous, and explain your reasoning. (a) A soft, slippery solid that has no definite melting point but decomposes at temperatures above 250 C; the solid does not conduct electricity (b) Violet crystals that melt at 114 C and whose vapor irritates the nose; neither the solid nor the liquid conducts electricity (c) Hard, colorless crystals that melt at 2800 C; the liquid conducts electricity, but the solid does not (d) A hard solid that melts at 3410 C; both the solid and the liquid conduct electricityarrow_forwardAn amorphous solid can sometimes be converted to a crystalline solid by a process called annealing. Annealing consists of heating the substance to a temperature just below the melting point of the crystalline form and then cooling it slowly. Explain why this process helps produce a crystalline solid.arrow_forwardClassify each substance in the table as either a metallic, ionic, molecular, or covalent network solid: Substance Appearance Melting Point Electrical Conductivity Solubility in Water X brittle, white 800 C only if melted/dissolved soluble Y shiny, malleable 1100 C high insoluble X hard, colorless 3550 C none insolublearrow_forward
