Interpretation:
The phase diagram of argon needs to be sketched using the given information and when the temperature is increased whether the solid argon at 500 mm Hg of pressure will boils, melts, sublimes or condenses needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Phase diagram can be defined as the representation of pressure and temperature quantities of any pure substance. At these values of temperature and pressure, the different phases of the pure substance are equilibrium to each other.
The triple point is defined as the equilibrium condition among all the three phases of any pure substance which is solid, liquid and gas.

- The phase diagram for water over a relative narrow pressure and temperature range is given in Figure 9.19. A phase diagram over a considerably wider range of temperature and pressure (kbar) is given nearby. This phase diagram illustrates the polymorphism of ice, the existence of a solid in more than one form. In this case, Roman numerals are used to designate each polymorphic form. For example, Ice I, ordinary ice, is the form that exists under ordinary pressures. The other forms exist only at higher pressures, in some cases extremely high pressure such as Ice VII and Ice VIII. Using the phase diagram, give the approximate P and T conditions at the triple point for Ice III, Ice V, and liquid water. Determine the approximate temperature and pressure for the triple point for Ices VI, VII, and VIII. What is anomalously different about the fusion curves for Ice VI and Ice VII compared to that of Ice I? What phases exist at 8 kbar and 20 °C? At a constant temperature of −10 °C, start at 3 kbar and increase the pressure to 7 kbar. Identify all the phase changes that occur sequentially as these conditions change. Explain why there is no triple point for the combination of Ice VII, Ice VIII, and liquid water.arrow_forwardThe vapor pressure of ethanol, C2H5OH, at 50.0 C is 233 mmHg, and its normal boiling point at 1 atm is 78.3 C.
