Varies between substances. Ex The vaporization pressure and temperature of water is different from Mercury.
ans2. The concept you should study is the Triple Point of the material. The temperature and pressure at which the material can co-exist as liquid, solid, and gas phases.
For water, this temperature is 273.16oK at 0.6117 kPa. (and has been so for 50 years, but 0oC is adequate for ordinary mortals.)
For CO2 the TP is at 216.55oK at 517kPa.
For mercury, TP is at 23.2oK, at 1.65x10-7 kPa.

The process by which a solid becomes a liquid?
A solid becomes a liquid by the solid's molecules spreading farther apart until the point that it becomes a liquid because the temperature increases which causes the moecules to separate until liquid.
A liquid cooled down below a certain temperature becomes a what?
it becomes solid.
Is calcium a liquid a solid or a gas?
Yes, at room temperature and pressure calcium is a solid.
Is Mg a solid liquid or a gas?
Magnesium is a solid at normal temperature and pressure.
What is changes in solid liquid and gas?
The change between solid, liquid and gas is known as a change of state and is affected by the substance and its temperature. E.g. at room temperature water is liquid but a 0oc it becomes ice, a solid.
What is the temperature and pressure which a solid becomes a liquid?
the temperture and pressure at witch a soild becomes a liquid
How can pressure change a liquid into a solid?
Liquid changes to gas when pressure is reduced and temperature is increased. When pressure on liquid is reduced, the inter molecular space increases and temperature increases the kinetic energy of the atoms. This changes liquid to gaseous state
What is the most common state of Mercury?
The state of mercury at ordinary temperature and pressure is liquid, but it becomes solid at -39oC and becomes vapour at 357oC.
What is the physical state of promethium at room temperature?
The radioactive metal, Promethium, is a solid at room temperature and standard pressure. It becomes a liquid at 1040ºC and a gas or vapor at 3000ºC.
When liquid becomes a solid it had to?
When liquid becomes a solid it has to loose temperature. Because when a substance transforms into solid from liquid the atoms of that substance has to come closer to form the solid form.
Is the Mercury becomes solid in hot and liquid in coolest temperature?
No, mercury does not become solid in hot temperature and liquid in coolest temperature. But mercury becomes gas or liquid in hot temperature and becomes solid in coolest temperature. Mercury becomes solid after freezing point of -38.72 degrees Celsius. Solid Mercury can become superconductor in reaching of its critical temperature 4.2 K. Mercury is liquid under the room temperature (25 degrees Celsius). Mercury becomes gas after boiling point of 357 degrees Celsius.
The process by which a solid becomes a liquid?
A solid becomes a liquid by the solid's molecules spreading farther apart until the point that it becomes a liquid because the temperature increases which causes the moecules to separate until liquid.
Does the temperature goes down or higher when the solid ice become liquid?
When solid ice becomes liquid, the temperature goes higher.
A liquid cooled down below a certain temperature becomes a what?
it becomes solid.
Is calcium a liquid a solid or a gas?
Yes, at room temperature and pressure calcium is a solid.
What is melting or boiling point?
The melting point is the temperature at which a solid changes phases into a liquid. This is a result of the highly structured atoms of the solid, which have very little kinetic energy beginning to gain energy and dissociate. The boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid changes into a gas. This happens when the atoms/molecules of a liquid gain enough kinetic energy to escape the liquid and move into the gaseous state.
Is Mg a solid liquid or a gas?
Magnesium is a solid at normal temperature and pressure.
