Chapter 6 - Phases and Phase Changes

Question 1

Supercritical Fluid

Answer 1

exists when conditions exceed the critical point, they take on properties that are a compromise between gases and liquids

Question 2

Boiling Point

Answer 2

defined as the temp at which the vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure and the temperature above which a substance may not exist as a liquid

Question 3

Raoult’s Law

Answer 3

Pvapor = XiPvapor (pure)

vapor pressure = mole fraction x vapor pressure of pure sample of component under those conditions
