Measuring P-V-T Phase Behavior with a Variable Volume View Cell
Hoffmann, Markus M.; Salter, Jason D.
Journal of Chemical Education, v81 n3 p411 Mar 2004
An experiment using a variable volume cell is presented where students actively control and directly observe the phase equilibrium inside the view cell. Measuring and exploring P-V-T phase behavior through dielectric constant measurements conveys the important concept that solvent behavior can be changed continuously in the sc fluid state.
