We have developed a scaled parametric equation of state to describe and Upon supercooling, water exhibits anomalous behavior with sharply increasing heat capacity, isothermal compressibility, and the magnitude of negative thermal expansivity [1]. A thermodynamically consistent view on the global phase behavior of supercooled water was formulated by Poole et al. [2]. According to this view, the observed anomalies are associated with density and entropy fluctuations diverging at a critical point of liquid-liquid coexistence that terminates the line of first-order transitions between two liquid aqueous phases: lowdensity liquid and high-density liquid. This "second-critical-point" scenario is supported by 1
There exists a formulation for the critical locus of aqueous solution of NaCl recommended by the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam. In this article, we present slightly modified equations for the critical parameters of H 2 O + NaCl that incorporate a non-analytic concentration dependence predicted by theory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
