Question

The substance ammonia has the following properties: normal melting point: 195.4 K normal boiling point: 239.8 K triple point: 5.9×10-2 atm, 195.3 K critical point: 111.5 atm, 405.5 K At temperatures above 405.5 K and pressures above 111.5 atm, NH3 is a _________ . NH3 does not exist as a liquid at pressures below atm. NH3 is a _________ at 5.90×10-2 atm and 249.5 K. NH3 is a _________ at 1.00 atm and 236.0 K. NH3 is a _________ at 24.6 atm and 185.6 K.

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Superficial fluid

b)  5.9*10^-2 atm

c) Gas

d) Liquid

e) Solid

Explanation:

a)  At temperatures above 405.5 K and pressures above 111.5 atm, NH3 is a superficial fluid because liquid and gases does not exit at temperature and pressure greater than  405.5 K and  111.5 atm

b) NH3 does not exist as a liquid at pressures below  5.9*10^-2 atm , That is below the triple point there is existence of liquid

c)  NH3 is a Gas at 5.90×10^-2 atm and 249.5 K.

d) NH3 is a  Liquid  at 1.00 atm and 236.0 K. because pressure and temperature ( standard ) is between the given normal melting and boiling point

e) NH3 is a solid at 24.6 atm and 185.6 K . because the pressure here is more than that of triple point while the temperature is lesser
