Question

Triple point of water corresponds to
A) 1 atm, 0°C
B) 1 atm, 0.01°C
C) 1 atm, 0 K
D) 4.58 Torr, 0.01°C

Answer 1

Triple point of water corresponds to
A) 1 atm, 0°C
B) 1 atm, 0.01°C
C) 1 atm, 0 K
D) 4.58 Torr, 0.01°C

=> Option D

Answer 2

Answer:

(D)The Triple point of water is at 4.58Torr,0.01°C

Explanation:

We are required to find triple point of water.

The triple point of water is known and it exists at a Temperature of 0.01°C and Pressure of 611.2Pa

We have to convert the pressure in torr.

For that,we have an relation as stated below

$1 \: torr = \frac{1}{133} Pa$

Therefore,required pressure is found as follows

$\frac{611.2}{133} = 4.58torr$

Hence the Triple point of water is at 4.58Torr,0.01°C
