Generating Function s Imperfect
Normal boiling point of water on the plot is
about 108.2 C.
I cheated; I looked at the data!
What does Normal boiling point mean??

From Kubaschewskis Data
Vapor pressure at 100 C is 758 Torr
Much better approximation!
Caveat emptor!
Life is like a sewer: the quality of the fit
depends on the number of terms in the
generating function!
RCA Charts
Great resource tool: the RCA Charts,
which live in 327 JFB. Treat them with
great respect: they are much older than
you are and irreplaceable.

F=CP+2
F = number of degrees of freedom
C = number of components
P = number of phases

Carbon monoxide
2. What is the boiling point of water in a
vacuum system at 10-6 Torr?
3. What is the vapor pressure of carbon
dioxide at room temperature?
4. What is the condensed phase of carbon
dioxide in equilibrium with the vapor at
room temperature? How do you know?
