Answer:

Perfectly Specified

Explanation:

Given,

Pressure = P = 0.9 atm

and the Boiling point = T

Number of phases P = 1

Number of components C = 1

According to Gibb's phase rule ,

F = C - P + 2

If

  • F = 0, the system is perfectly specified

  • F > 0, the system is under specified

  • F < 0 the system is over specified

At P = 0.9 atm, boiling point is T i.e. Fixed equal to 96.7 °C (from steam table)

P is independent variable and T is dependent variable (depends on the value of P ).

In this case only two variables are required to fix the system pressure and temperature.

In the given problem, pressure is fixed so the temperature is also fixed. There is no requirement of any other variable.

Therefore degree of freedom,

F = 0

The system is perfectly specified.

In 1869 he published a table of the elements organized by increasing atomic mass.

Mendeleev is called the "father of the modern periodic table

stated that if the atomic weight of an element caused it to be placed in the wrong group, then the weight must be wrong. (He corrected the atomic masses of Be, In, and U)

was so confident in his table that he used it to predict the physical properties of three elements that were yet unknown.

After the discovery of these unknown elements between 1874 and 1885, and the fact that Mendeleev's predictions for Sc, Ga, and Ge were amazingly close to the actual values, his table was generally accepted.

However, in spite of Mendeleev's great achievement, problems arose when new elements were discovered and more accurate atomic weights determined.
