Chapter 4.2, Problem 7E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Reason for no droplets of water in oil of heating bath should be determined.

Concept introduction:Boiling point is defined as temperature that has vapor pressure of liquid equal to pressure that is present around liquid. At this temperature, substance gets converted from liquid state to vapor or gaseous phase. It depends on strength of intermolecular forces. Stronger the intermolecular forces, higher will be boiling point and vice-versa.

What is formed when gas is enclosed in a chamber then liquified under very high pressure? * What latent heat value signifies the lost of heat during a phase change? What is the unique temperature and pressure at which the three phases of a substance are in equilibrium with each other? * Which liquid crystal is of pharmaceutical significance? *
In the above image, you have a solid at less than 0 oC. As you add heat (Q), the temperature of the solid increases until it hits a point when it would start melting. In the case of water, this is at 0 oC. Notice that at this point the temperature stops rising and we have a mixture of solid/liquid. We are still adding heat but the temperature is not changing. Once all of our solid becomes liquid, the temperature starts to rise again until it hits another plateau, at 100 oC. This is the point where the water boils and starts becoming a gas. Again, we add heat but the liquid/gas mixtures temperature does not change. Once all the liquid has become gas, the temperature will start to rise again. Is it possible to have 0 oC water and 0 oC ice?   Yes or No?
2. If an object has a low specific heat, would it be more like a conductor or an insulator? Explain.
