  2. Critical point (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

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

    The liquid–liquid critical point of a solution, which occurs at the critical solution temperature, occurs at the limit of the two-phase region of the phase diagram. In other words, it is the point at which an infinitesimal change in some thermodynamic variable (such as temperature or pressure) leads to separation of the mixture into two ...

  3. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The pressure on a pressure-temperature diagram (such as the water phase diagram shown above) is the partial pressure of the substance in question. A phase diagram in physical chemistry , engineering , mineralogy , and materials science is a type of chart used to show conditions (pressure, temperature, etc.) at which thermodynamically distinct ...

  4. Supercritical fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercritical_fluid

    In the pressure-temperature phase diagram (Fig. 1) the boiling curve separates the gas and liquid region and ends in the critical point, where the liquid and gas phases disappear to become a single supercritical phase. The appearance of a single phase can also be observed in the density-pressure phase diagram for carbon dioxide (Fig. 2).

  5. Supercritical carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercritical_carbon_dioxide

    Carbon dioxide pressure-temperature phase diagram This video shows the property of carbon dioxide to go into a supercritical state with increasing temperature. Supercritical carbon dioxide (s CO 2) is a fluid state of carbon dioxide where it is held at or above its critical temperature and critical pressure.

  6. Phase rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_rule

    Carbon dioxide pressure-temperature phase diagram showing the triple point and critical point of carbon dioxide. In the phase diagram to the right, the boundary curve between the liquid and gas regions maps the constraint between temperature and pressure when the single-component system has separated into liquid and gas phases at equilibrium ...

  7. Phase (matter) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(matter)

    In water, the critical point occurs at around 647 K (374 °C or 705 °F) and 22.064 MPa. An unusual feature of the water phase diagram is that the solid–liquid phase line (illustrated by the dotted green line) has a negative slope. For most substances, the slope is positive as exemplified by the dark green line.

  8. Supercritical liquid–gas boundaries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercritical_liquid–gas...

    supercritical gas-liquid boundaries in pT diagram. According to textbook knowledge, it is possible to transform a liquid continuously into a gas, without undergoing a phase transition, by heating and compressing strongly enough to go around the critical point.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_(data_page)

    Log-lin pressure–temperature phase diagram of water. ... The values in the temperature range of the boiling point of water up to the critical point (100 °C to 374 ...
