Lesson 1.2.5
Phase Behavior: Liquid, Gas, Supercritical, and Why It Matters
Estimated time: 45 minutes
Learning Objectives
- ✓Understand states of matter in the context of solvents: liquid phase extraction, gas phase behavior, and the supercritical state
- ✓Know what a phase diagram is and how to read one (specifically for CO2)
- ✓Understand the supercritical state: a fluid with the density of a liquid and the diffusivity of a gas
- ✓Know why pressure and temperature together control solvency in CO2 extraction
- ✓Understand vapor pressure and boiling points and why they matter for solvent recovery
