Hello, everyone. Today, we are being asked the following question shown below is the phase diagram for Krypton determine the approximate normal melting point of krypton. So the normal melting point of krypton can be approximated at the normal pressure which is one atmosphere or 101.3 to 5 kill it. Pascal's or K P A. And so if we trace this one oh 1.3 to 5 K P A on the Y axis and locate the point where the solid transitions to the liquid Sophie are at this point right around here. And we go to the, where the solid turns into a liquid, which would be right here. And then we trace down to the y axis. We can state that that point is going to be in that halfway mark between 1 and 1 20 which is going to be Kelvin. And with that, we have answered the question, it's going to be answer choice c overall, I hope this helped. And until next time

Textbook Question

At 25 °C gallium is a solid with a density of 5.91 g/cm3. Its melting point, 29.8 °C, is low enough that you can melt it by holding it in your hand. The density of liquid gallium just above the melting point is 6.1 g/cm3. Based on this information, what unusual feature would you expect to find in the phase diagram of gallium?
