Phase diagram

Simplified temperature/pressure phase change diagram for water. The pressure on a pressure-temperature diagram (such as the water phase diagram shown above) is the partial pressure of the substance in question.

A phase diagram in physical chemistry, engineering, mineralogy, and materials science is a type of chart used to show conditions (pressure, temperature, volume, etc.) at which thermodynamically distinct phases (such as solid, liquid or gaseous states) occur and coexist at equilibrium.
