  2. Compressibility factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor

    Once two of the three reduced properties are found, the compressibility chart can be used. In a compressibility chart, reduced pressure is on the x-axis and Z is on the y-axis. When given the reduced pressure and temperature, find the given pressure on the x-axis. From there, move up on the chart until the given reduced temperature is found.

  3. Compressibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility

    For ordinary materials, the bulk compressibility (sum of the linear compressibilities on the three axes) is positive, that is, an increase in pressure squeezes the material to a smaller volume. This condition is required for mechanical stability. [8] However, under very specific conditions, materials can exhibit a compressibility that can be ...

  4. Solid oxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_oxygen

    Solid oxygen O 2, like liquid oxygen, is a clear substance with a light sky-blue color caused by absorption in the red part of the visible light spectrum. Oxygen molecules have attracted attention because of the relationship between the molecular magnetization and crystal structures, electronic structures, and superconductivity.

  5. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    The compressibility of water is a function of pressure and temperature. At 0 °C, at the limit of zero pressure, the compressibility is 5.1 × 10 −10 Pa −1. At the zero-pressure limit, the compressibility reaches a minimum of 4.4 × 10 −10 Pa −1 around 45 °C before increasing again

  6. Oxygen compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_compounds

    Oxygen forms heteropoly acids and polyoxometalate ions with tungsten, molybdenum and some other transition metals, such as phosphotungstic acid (H 3 PW 12 O 40) and octadecamolybdophosphoric acid (H 6 P 2 Mo 18 O 62). Oxygen can form oxides with heavier noble gases xenon and radon, although this needs indirect methods.

  7. Theorem of corresponding states - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theorem_of_corresponding...

    According to van der Waals, the theorem of corresponding states (or principle/law of corresponding states) indicates that all fluids, when compared at the same reduced temperature and reduced pressure, have approximately the same compressibility factor and all deviate from ideal gas behavior to about the same degree. [1] [2]

  8. List of states of matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_states_of_matter

    Crystalline solid: A solid in which atoms, molecules, or ions are packed in regular order. Quasicrystal: A solid in which the positions of the atoms have long-range order, but this is not in a repeating pattern. Different structural phases of polymorphic materials are considered to be different states of matter in the Landau theory.

  9. Critical point (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_point...

    Near the critical point, all these properties change into the exact opposite: water becomes compressible, expandable, a poor dielectric, a bad solvent for electrolytes, and mixes more readily with nonpolar gases and organic molecules. [4] At the critical point, only one phase exists. The heat of vaporization is zero.
