Chapter 10, Problem 108E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation

• Phase diagram for Bromine to be drawn.
• To order these phases from least to most dense.
• Stable states for Bromine at standard conditions.
• Under what temperature phase changes occur at 0.10 atm and temperature increases from $\text{-50}°\text{C}$ to $\text{200°C}\text{.}$

Concept Introduction

Phase diagram: Under different temperature and pressure, physical states of the substance that are represented in graph are known as phase diagram. The temperature represents in X-axis and pressure in Y-axis.

Triple point: For given substance, three phases (solid, liquid and gas) are coexisting in thermodynamic equilibrium at particular temperature and pressure.

Critical point: In a phase diagram, a point at which both liquid and gaseous state of the substance having indistinguishable density.
