How many phases of water are in equilibrium at the triple point?
Triple = 3
What is represented at triple point of water?
solid, liquid, gas phases in equilibrium
Why is 0 degree Celsius called as triple point?
In triple point,all phases of water, vapour,Liquid water and ice is @ equilibrium.
What is the condensation point of water in kelvin?
The condensation point in Kelvin is 373 Kelvin. At this temperature, the liquid and gaseous state of water exist in equilibrium.
What does equilibrium?
Equilibrium is the point where demand = supply
What place is the place where supply and demand curves intersect?
The point where supply and demand intersect is the equilibrium point. This is the point where quantity demanded and quantity supplied are equal.
Why does salt decrease ice's melting point?
Imagine water in contact with ice at equilibrium, at zero Celsius. Adding salt or any other water soluble substance shifts the equilibrium in favour of melting: Kinetic equilibrium between water and ice is maintained by constant interchange of water molecules between the solid and liquid phases. After adding a water soluble substance, there is a lower concentration of water molecules in the liquid, but the concentration of water molecules in the ice remains the same. Therefore, the equilibrium is shifted in favor of liquid (Le Chateliere's Principle), and the melting point must decrease to overcome this concentration change in the liquid. This freeezing point depression will be caused by any added solute and does depend on whether the heat of solution is positive, negative, or zero. (Melting point is an equilibrium property.)
What is a condition of osmosis where water moves evenly back and forth across a membrane?
Most likely an Equilibrium point
What is the triple point on a phase diagram Apex?
a point indicating three phases in dynamic equilibrium
Would the boiling point of distilled water and hard water be the same?
Obviously not.
Are all solids frozen?
Technically yes. The melting point and freezing point of every liquid (for the particular element) is the same; it is the point when the element is shifting from or to state of equilibrium, depending on the direction of energy movement.
Why is the centroid of a triangle important?
It is the triangle's point of equilibrium or its point of balance.
