Lecture 15

The document discusses properties of pure substances including: - Extending phase diagrams to include the solid phase for substances that contract or expand upon freezing - The triple line and triple point where three phases coexist in equilibrium on pressure-volume or temperature-volume diagrams - The importance of the triple point pressure and temperature, which is 0.01°C and 0.6117 kPa for water - How a pressure-temperature diagram depicts the different phases of a substance at various pressures and temperatures

Triple Line and Triple Point
• On P-v or T-v diagrams, under some conditions all three phases of a
pure substance coexist in equilibrium, these triple-phase states
form a line called the triple line.
• The states on the triple line of a substance have the same pressure
and temperature but different specific volumes.
• The triple line appears as a point on the P-T diagrams and,
therefore, is often called the triple point.
• For water, the triple-point temperature and pressure are 0.01°C
and 0.6117 kPa, respectively.

5
Importance of Triple Point Pressure and Temperature
• No substance can exist in the liquid phase in stable equilibrium at
pressures below the triple-point pressure.

• Substances at high pressures can exist in the liquid phase at


temperatures below the triple-point temperature.

• For example, water cannot exist in liquid form in equilibrium at


atmospheric pressure at temperatures below 0°C, but it can exist
as a liquid at -20°C at 200 MPa pressure.
