Interpretation:
Each line in the phase diagram, in terms of the derivative it represents, is to be labeled.
Concept introduction:
Phase diagram represents the different physical states of a substance at different values of temperature and pressure. In the water, the molar volume of solid is greater than the molar volume of the liquid.
Answer to Problem 6.66E
