Interpretation:
Solid: Solid is a sample of matter that retains its shape and density when not confined. Stronger force of attraction exists between atom/ions/ molecules.
Liquid: A liquid is a sample of matter that conforms to shape of container in which aquires a defined surface in the presence of gravity. In this state weaker force exist between atoms/ ions/ molecules.
Gas: A gas is a sample of matter that conforms to the shape of container in which it is placed and acquires whole volume of container.
Negligible force of attraction exists between atoms/ions/molecules.
Supercritical fluid: Fluid over its critical temperature and pressure exhibiting good solvent power.
Concept used introduction:
A generic diagram which shows that state of general matter with change in pressure or temperature or both. At a particular temperature or pressure you can find out the state of matter with the help of phase diagram.
To determine:
Identify the states present at points through a to g in the phase diagram show here.

(b) 0.5 atm, 100C.(c) 0.8 atm. 50C.arrow_forwardReferring to Figure 9.7, state what phase(s) is (are) present at (a) 1 atm, 10C. (b) 3 mm Hg, 20C. (c) 1000 mm Hg, 75C.arrow_forwardDescribe the behavior of a liquid and its vapor in a closed vessel as the temperature increases.arrow_forward
- 8.48 Why must the vapor pressure of a substance be measured only after dynamic equilibrium is established?arrow_forwardWhat feature characterizes the dynamic equilibrium between a liquid and its vapor in a closed container?arrow_forwardA pure substance X has the following properties: Mp=90C, increasing slightly as pressure increases; normal bp=120C; liquid vp=65mm Hg at 100C, 20 mm Hg at the triple point. (a) Draw a phase diagram for X. (b) Label solid, liquid, and vapor regions of the diagram. (c) What changes occur if, at a constant pressure of 100 mm Hg, the temperature is raised from 100C to 150C?arrow_forward
- Use the phase diagram of water in Figure 6.6 and count the total number of phase transitions that are represented.arrow_forwardThe heats of vaporization of liquid O2, liquid Ne, and liquid methanol, CH3OH, are 6.8 kJ/moL 1.8 kJ/mol, and 34.5 kJ/mol, respectively. Are the relative values as you would expect? Explain.arrow_forwardConsider the following data for xenon: Triple point: 121C, 280 torr Normal melting point: 112C Normal boiling point: 107C Which is more dense, Xe(s) or Xe(l)? How do the melting point and boiling point of xenon depend on pressure?arrow_forward
- 8.45 Describe how interactions between molecules affect the vapor pressure of a liquid.arrow_forwardWater at 0C was placed in a dish inside a vessel maintained at low pressure by a vacuum pump. After a quantity of water had evaporated, the remainder froze. If 9.31 g of ice at 0C was obtained, how much liquid water must have evaporated? The heat of fusion of water is 6.01 kJ/mol and its heat of vaporization is 44.9 kJ/mol at 0C.arrow_forward
