A) The triple point
The triple point of a system is the thermodynamic point where the pressure, composition and temperature are maintained at a specific value and all three phases of that substance, solid, liquid and gas, coexist. This equilibrium is disturbed if any of the above mentioned variables are changed. The degree of freedom at the triple point is described as being zero.
