According to the phase diagram for water, how is the state of water determined?
2 answers:
Explanation:
From the attached phase diagram, one can easily make out the phase in which water exists. Matter generally exists in three physical states which are solid, liquid and gas. Water is a unique compound that can exists in these three states at a given temperature and pressure.
From the attached phase diagram,
- point O is the triple point where the three phases of pure substance co-exists.
- The areas between the curves points at a single phase of matter. Y is a water vapor.
- The lines on the curve denotes two equilibrium phases. For example; X is a phase contain ice and melt water.

Answer:
0.084 M
Explanation:
Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for a buffer ( a buffer is solution contain a weak acid and it conjugate base; the solution resist change in pH)
pH = pKa + log ( base/acid)
4.9 - 4.76 =log ( base / acid)
10^0.14 = ( base / acid)
1.38 = (base / acid)
since there is 0.2 M in the buffer solution
the concentration of acid = × 0.2 = 0.084 M
