Option 4 : triple point
The correct option is triple point.CONCEPT:
- The temperature and pressure at which the solid, liquid, and vapor phases of a pure substance coexists in equilibrium are called the triple point.
- The Triple point is a line on the P-V diagram where all the three phases solid, liquid, and gases exist in equilibrium.
- The triple point is merely the point of intersection of the sublimation and vaporization curves.
- It has been found that on a ‘p-T’ diagram the triple point is represented by a point and on a ‘p-v’ diagram it is a line, and on a ‘u-v’ diagram it is a triangle.
- In the case of ordinary water, the triple point is at a pressure of 4.58 mm Hg and a temperature of 0.01°C.
- The matter solidifies on the left side of the triple point, not at the triple point.
- The matter liquifies on the upper side of the triple point, not at the triple point.
- The matter sublimates on the right side of the triple point, not at the triple point.
