This article reports the results obtained using a computer program developed with the software LabVIEW. The program is a computer simulation of the physical chemistry experiment regarding the vapor pressure measurements of a pure liquid as a function of temperature. We also describe a system of data collecting to emphasize the similarities between the virtual and real experiment, which allows the user to read the data in the laboratory with an instrument similar to the one simulated in the virtual experience.
We report the results of the development and realization of a program using LabVIEW software to simulate the technique utilized in the laboratory to construct a phase diagram that represents a liquid–vapor equilibrium. The program has been set up so that the student can work as if in a real laboratory, including mistakes usually made in this kind of measurement.
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.
