  2. Propane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane

    At normal pressure it liquifies below its boiling point at −42 °C and solidifies below its melting point at −187.7 °C. Propane crystallizes in the space group P2 1 /n. [25] [26] The low space-filling of 58.5% (at 90 K), due to the bad stacking properties of the molecule, is the reason for the particularly low melting point. Propane ...

    Critical point: 369.522 K (96.672 °C), 42.4924 bar ... log of propane vapor pressure. ... Propane does not have health effects other than the danger of frostbite or ...

  4. Boiling point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_point

    The boiling point corresponds to the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the surrounding environmental pressure. Thus, the boiling point is dependent on the pressure. Boiling points may be published with respect to the NIST, USA standard pressure of 101.325 kPa (1 atm), or the IUPAC standard pressure of 100.000 kPa (1 ...

  5. Liquefied petroleum gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefied_petroleum_gas

    As its boiling point is below room temperature, LPG will evaporate quickly at normal temperatures and pressures and is usually supplied in pressurized steel vessels. They are typically filled to 80–85% of their capacity to allow for thermal expansion of the contained liquid. The ratio of the densities of the liquid and vapor varies depending ...

  6. Vapor pressures of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_pressures_of_the...

    The temperature at standard pressure should be equal to the normal boiling point, but due to the considerable spread does not necessarily have to match values reported elsewhere. log refers to log base 10 (T/K) refers to temperature in Kelvin (K) (P/Pa) refers to pressure in Pascal (Pa)

  7. Vapor pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_pressure

    At the normal boiling point of a liquid, the vapor pressure is equal to the standard atmospheric pressure defined as 1 atmosphere, [1] 760 Torr, 101.325 kPa, or 14.69595 psi. For example, at any given temperature, methyl chloride has the highest vapor pressure of any of the liquids in the chart.

  8. Vapor–liquid equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor–liquid_equilibrium

    Boiling-point diagram. The preceding equilibrium equations are typically applied for each phase (liquid or vapor) individually, but the result can be plotted in a single diagram. In a binary boiling-point diagram, temperature (T ) (or sometimes pressure) is graphed vs. x 1. At any given temperature (or pressure) where both phases are present ...

  9. Saturation dome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_Dome

    When a substance reaches the saturated liquid line it is commonly said to be at its boiling point. The temperature will remain constant while it is at constant pressure underneath the saturation dome (boiling water stays at a constant of 212F) until it reaches the saturated vapor line. This line is where the mixture has converted completely to ...
