How is temperature and pressure affects the phase change?
Study the figure, what can you infer about the changing of phases of matter as temperature
Study the figure, what can you infer about the changing of phases of matter as pressure increases?
• The state of matter of
a substance is
attributed to the
distance between
the particles which
make the substance.
• when pressure is
applied on gas, it
compresses to liquid
and when pressure is
increased on liquid, it
becomes solid.

The Phase Diagram of Water
What is a Phase Diagram?
A phase diagram is a graphical
representation of the various phases
of a substance or mixture of
substances that coexist in
thermodynamic equilibrium, and
undergo phase changes under
different working conditions, such as
temperature, pressure, or volume.
What is a Phase Diagram?
• The water system is divided into
three phases:
• ICE (S),
• WATER (L), and
• WATER VAPOUR (G)
Tripple Point of Water
• The triple point occurs where
the solid, liquid, and gas
transition curves meet.
• The triple point is the only
condition in which all three
phases can coexist, and is
unique for every material.
• Water reaches its triple point
at just above freezing (0.1° C)
and at a pressure of 0.006 atm.
A phase diagram combines plots of
pressure versus temperature for the
liquid-gas, solid-liquid, and solid-gas
phase-transition equilibria of a
substance.
Phase diagram indicate the chemical states that
exist under specific conditions of pressure and
temperature and provide the pressure
dependence of the phase-transition temperatures
(melting points, sublimation points, boiling
points). .
physical
The “liquid-vapor” curve
separates the liquid and
gaseous regions of the
phase diagram and
provides the boiling point
for water at any pressure.
The solid-vapor curve,
labeled AB indicates the
temperatures and
pressures at which ice
and water vapor are in
equilibrium.
The lines separating the three phases intersect at
a single point, the supercritical fluid, which is the
only combination of temperature and pressure at
which all three phases can coexist in equilibrium.

What happens to
the temperature of
a block of ice when
you put a Bunsen
burner underneath
it?
Heating curve
Heating curve
The temperature goes up the longer the heating
continues.
There are two horizontal flat parts (segments BC and
DE) to the graph.
The plateaus are also
called phase changes.
Heating curve
The first change of state
(segment BC) is melting
(changing from a solid to a
liquid). The temperature
stays the same while a
substance melt.
Heating curve
The second change of state
(segment DE) is boiling
(changing from a liquid to a
gas). The temperature stays the
same while a substance boil.
Heating curve
For water, this temperature is 100°C
because the boiling point for water is
100°C. Over the course of this line
segment, both liquid and gas exist in
various ratios, starting at 100% liquid
and ending at 100% gas.
