    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_states_of_matter

    Hexatic state, a state of matter that is between the solid and the isotropic liquid phases in two dimensional systems of particles. Ferroics Ferroelastic state , a phenomenon in which a material may exhibit a spontaneous strain.

  3. Binary system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_system

    Good examples of true binary companions are the 90 Antiope and the 79360 Sila–Nunam systems. Pluto and its largest moon Charon are sometimes described as a binary system because the barycenter (center of mass) of the two objects is not inside either of them, but Charon is small enough compared to Pluto that it is usually classified as a moon.

  4. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The pressure on a pressure-temperature diagram (such as the water phase diagram shown) is the partial pressure of the substance in question. [1] The solidus is the temperature below which the substance is stable in the solid state. The liquidus is the temperature above which the

  5. State of matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_matter

    A distinct state of matter can be defined as any set of states distinguished from any other set of states by a phase transition. Water can be said to have several distinct solid states. [ 7 ] The appearance of superconductivity is associated with a phase transition, so there are superconductive states.

  6. Phase rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_rule

    In thermodynamics, the phase rule is a general principle governing multi-component, multi-phase systems in thermodynamic equilibrium.For a system without chemical reactions, it relates the number of freely varying intensive properties (F) to the number of components (C), the number of phases (P), and number of ways of performing work on the system (N): [1] [2] [3]: 123–125

  7. Equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_state

    Thus water behaves as though it is an ideal gas that is already under about 20,000 atmospheres (2 GPa) pressure, and explains why water is commonly assumed to be incompressible: when the external pressure changes from 1 atmosphere to 2 atmospheres (100 kPa to 200 kPa), the water behaves as an ideal gas would when changing from 20,001 to 20,002 ...

  8. Water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water

    The word "Water" has been used by many Florida based rappers as a sort of catchphrase or adlib. Rappers who have done this include BLP Kosher and Ski Mask the Slump God. [252] To go even further some rappers have made whole songs dedicated to the water in Florida, such as the 2023 Danny Towers song "Florida Water". [253]

  9. Eutectic system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eutectic_system

    A phase diagram for a fictitious binary chemical mixture (with the two components denoted by A and B) used to depict the eutectic composition, temperature, and point. ( L denotes the liquid state.) A eutectic system or eutectic mixture ( / j uː ˈ t ɛ k t ɪ k / yoo- TEK -tik ) [ 1 ] is a type of a homogeneous mixture that has a melting point ...
