  2. Liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid

    A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape ... resulting in a limited degree of particle mobility. ... The phase diagram explains why ...

  3. Structure of liquids and glasses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_of_liquids_and...

    The attenuation of the peaks at increasing radial distances from the center indicates the decreasing degree of order from the center particle. This illustrates vividly the absence of "long-range order" in liquids and glasses. At long ranges, g(r) approaches a limiting value of 1, which corresponds to the macroscopic density of the material.

  4. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    A two component diagram with components A and B in an "ideal" solution is shown. The construction of a liquid vapor phase diagram assumes an ideal liquid solution obeying Raoult's law and an ideal gas mixture obeying Dalton's law of partial pressure. A tie line from the liquid to the gas at constant pressure would indicate the two compositions ...

  5. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    The solid/liquid/vapor triple point of liquid water, ice I h and water vapor in the lower left portion of a water phase diagram. The temperature and pressure at which ordinary solid, liquid, and gaseous water coexist in equilibrium is a triple point of water.

  6. Triple point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_point

    A typical phase diagram.The solid green line applies to most substances; the dashed green line gives the anomalous behavior of water. In thermodynamics, the triple point of a substance is the temperature and pressure at which the three phases (gas, liquid, and solid) of that substance coexist in thermodynamic equilibrium. [1]

  7. State of matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_matter

    A simplified phase diagram for water, showing whether solid ice, liquid water, or gaseous water vapor is the most stable at different combinations of temperature and pressure In physics , a state of matter is one of the distinct forms in which matter can exist.

  8. 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.

  9. Compressed fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_fluid

    The compressed fluid region is located to the left of the blue line (the liquid-vapor phase boundary). The international pictogram for compressed gases. A compressed fluid (also called a compressed or unsaturated liquid, [1] subcooled fluid or liquid) is a fluid under mechanical or thermodynamic conditions that force it to be a liquid. [2]
