    A pure substance has a fixed chemical composition throughout its mass. A phase is a quantity of matter that is homogeneous in chemical composition and physical structure. The triple point of a substance is the temperature and pressure at which the three phases (gas, liquid, solid) of that substance coexist in thermodynamic equilibrium.

    Pure substance

    A pure substance is defined as one that has


    fixed chemical composition throughout its
    mass.

    A quantity of matter homogeneous throughout in


    chemical composition and physical structure is
    called phase.
    Critical point:
    Compressed liquid and
    super heated vapour

    A liquid that is about to vaporize is called a saturated liquid.


    A vapour that is about to condense is called saturated vapour
    Substance that Expands on Freezing

    Triple point
    0.01oC,
    0.006028 atm
    Dryness fraction or quality of steam

    =Vf-xVf+xVg
    =Vf+x(Vg-Vf)
    =Vf+xVgf
    Reference State and Reference Value
