Suppose a small sample of pure X is held at 3. °C and 9.6 atm. What will be the state of the sample? Suppose the temperature is held constant at 3. °C but the pressure is decreased by 4.7 atm. What will happen to the sample? Suppose, on the other hand, the pressure is held constant at 9.6 atm but the temperature is decreased by 61. °C. What will happen to the sample? (choose one) (choose one) (choose one) (choose one) Nothing. It will melt. It will freeze. It will boil. It will condense. It will sublime. It will deposit.
