Phase Changes Chp 10
Phase Diagrams • Phase diagram = relates physical states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) to temperature and pressure
Phase Diagrams • Triple Point: the only set of conditions where all three physical states can exist in equilibrium
Phase Diagrams • Critical Point = temperature at which a liquid turns to a gas and cannot be turned back into a liquid, no matter the pressure
Typical Phase Diagram
Phase Diagram For Water
Phase Diagram: • Sublimation = Moving from the solid to gaseous state with out passing through the liquid state • Vaporization of a solid
Uses for sublimation: • Freezing things like freshly brewed coffee, or food for campers and astronauts • Dry ice- carbon dioxide in solid form- keeps things frozen during shipping
Uses for sublimation: • Moth balls: • Naphthalene sublimes into a vapor that keeps moths from damaging clothing and other things
Boiling & Freezing • When a substance boils or freezes (or melts or condenses) the temperature of the system will remain constant (does not change) until the phase change is complete
Boiling • This means, boiling water has a temp of 100oC, not higher. • The temp will begin to rise when all the water is boiled away into steam
Freezing / Melting • This also means melting ice has a temp of 0oC, not lower, not higher. • The temp will begin to rise when all the ice is melted
Vapor Pressure • A liquid will begin to boil when its vapor pressure equals the external pressure • Thus, as the pressure in the room changes, the boiling point of the liquid will change as well.
Vapor Pressure • At standard pressure (1 atm) the temperature at which a liquid will boil is called the normal boiling point • You can use a vapor pressure graph to determine the boiling point of a liquid at any pressure
Vapor Pressure Graph At standard pressure (760mmHg), liquid A will boil around 72oC. Liquid B will boil around 115oC. At what temps will they boil at 400mmHg?
