2. Use the data to sketch the phase diagram for xenon (Xe) and then answer the questions that follow. Normal boiling point: 165K Normal melting point: 161K Triple point: 152K, 0.37 am Critical temperature: 290K Critical pressure: 57 atm. a. What phase is xenon at atmospheric conditions? b. Is liquid xenon more or less dense that solid xenon? Use the diagram to justify your answer. c. What is the approximate maximum pressure of gas that can exist at -155°C? d. If a xenon sample is heated at 0.2 atm, at what temperature will the xenon melt? Explain. e. Can xenon be liquid at room temperature if enough pressure is applied? Explain. f. What is the minimum temperature at which the liquid phase can exist? 3. How can the melting line on a phase diagram assist in interpreting phase density?
