QUESTION:

Problem 62P

(I) Water is in which phase when the pressure is 0.01 atm and the temperature is (a) 90°C, (b) -20°C?

ANSWER:

Solution 62P

a.)

Step 1 of 2

We have to find the phase of the water when the pressure is 0.01 atm and the temperature is

90 oC.

The phase of the water at the given pressure of 0.01 atm and temperature of 90 oC can be found by making use of the phase diagram for water.

Now, it is clear from that the diagram that the point (marked as X) corresponding to pressure of 0.01 atm and temperature of 90 oC lies below the vapor line. Hence,water is in vapour phase.

Therefore, water is in vapor phase when the pressure is 0.01 atm and temperature is 90 oC.
