P=nRT/V
The temperature at which a substance in the liquid phase transforms to the gaseous phase is called the boiling point for pure substances. It is a characteristic property of the substance and remains constant under a specific pressure.
A substance is called a vapor when it is in the gaseous phase at a temperature below its critical temperature. Above this critical temperature, the substance is in the supercritical fluid phase rather than a distinct gas and vapor phases.
Heat and pressure are the two main factors that determine a substance's current phase.With high heat a substance's phase drifts toward the gaseous phase while freezing temperatures cause it to move toward its solid phase. With pressure it is the opposite. Higher pressures push the substance toward its solid phase, while lower pressures will encourage the substance to evaporate into its gaseous phase.
Phase change. Liquid phase to gaseous phase (evaporation) Liquid phase to solid phase (solidification, freezing) Solid phase to gaseous phase (sublimation9 Etc...
The phase of a substance is primarily determined by temperature and pressure. Temperature affects the kinetic energy of the particles, influencing whether they are in a solid, liquid, or gaseous state. Pressure, on the other hand, can alter the arrangement and interactions between particles, potentially leading to phase transitions such as melting, boiling, or condensation. Together, these two parameters define the conditions under which a substance exists in a particular phase.
Heating it to a temperature ABOVE its Boiling Point.
Vapor is properly used to refer to a gaseous form of a substance which is liquid or solid under standard temperature and pressure. Because ammonia is a gas at STP, it is not properly called a vapor.
A substance that is in the gas phase at a temperature at which it would normally be a solid or liquid
The vapor pressure of a substance is related to its phase diagram because the vapor pressure determines the conditions at which the substance transitions between different phases (solid, liquid, gas). The phase diagram shows how the substance behaves at different temperatures and pressures, including the points where the substance transitions between phases. The vapor pressure at a specific temperature and pressure can help determine the phase of the substance on the phase diagram.
Heat is absorbed but there is no rise in temperature.Furthermore, 'Phase change depends on the temperature and the amount of pressure exerted on it, also usually involving a transfer of energy.'Thusly, phase changes depend mostly on the heat energy (absorbed or released) and the amount of pressure exerted. in a phase change, a substance does one of these things to turn into a different state of matter: melt, freeze, evaporate, boil, condense, sublimate, or desublimate (deposition.)
At low pressure, less energy is required for molecules to escape the liquid phase to become gaseous. Conversely, at high pressure, the boiling point is increased.
Every substance has their own boiling point.
