  2. Evaporating cloud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporating_Cloud

    The lines or arrows connecting the nodes represent the rationale or causal assumptions that are used to link the nodes. When communicating the cloud, the arrows should be read as "in order to" or "because" or "so that". For example: "In order to achieve A we require B because there is no way we can have A without B."

  3. Dühring's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dühring's_rule

    Dühring's plot for boiling point of NaCl solutions [1] Dühring's rule is a scientific rule developed by Eugen Dühring which states that a linear relationship exists between the temperatures at which two solutions exert the same vapour pressure. [1] [2] The rule is often used to compare a pure liquid and a solution at a given concentration.

  4. Evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporation

    For example, laundry on a clothes line will dry (by evaporation) more rapidly on a windy day than on a still day. Three key parts to evaporation are heat, atmospheric pressure (determines the percent humidity), and air movement. On a molecular level, there is no strict boundary between the liquid state and the vapor state.

  5. Langmuir adsorption model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langmuir_adsorption_model

    Solvent (bound) + Solute (free) ↔ Solvent (free) + Solute (bound). If we designate the solvent by the subscript "1" and the solute by "2", and the bound state by the superscript "s" (surface/bound) and the free state by the "b" (bulk solution / free), then the equilibrium constant can be written as a ratio between the activities of products ...

  6. Drying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drying

    In a typical phase diagram, the boundary between gas and liquid runs from the triple point to the critical point. Regular drying is the green arrow, while supercritical drying is the red arrow and freeze drying is the blue. The following are some general methods of drying: Application of hot air (convective or direct drying). Air heating ...

  7. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    A tie line from the liquid to the gas at constant pressure would indicate the two compositions of the liquid and gas respectively. [14] A simple example diagram with hypothetical components 1 and 2 in a non-azeotropic mixture is shown at right. The fact that there are two separate curved lines joining the boiling points of the pure components ...

  8. Vapor pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_pressure

    For example, at any given temperature, methyl chloride has the highest vapor pressure of any of the liquids in the chart. It also has the lowest normal boiling point at −24.2 °C (−11.6 °F), which is where the vapor pressure curve of methyl chloride (the blue line) intersects the horizontal pressure line of one atmosphere ( atm ) of ...

  9. Phase (matter) - Wikipedia

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

    A typical phase diagram for a single-component material, exhibiting solid, liquid and gaseous phases. The solid green line shows the usual shape of the liquid–solid phase line. The dotted green line shows the anomalous behavior of water when the pressure increases. The triple point and the critical point are shown as red dots.
