What determines when an element will turn into different states of matter?
>>7667470
temperature and pressure
>>7667470
enthalpy and entropy
>>7667476
What determines what temperature and pressure it must be to change?
>>7667494
quantum mechanics and coulomb's force.
>>7667497
We have to go deeper
>>7667494
did you even do high school chemistry?
>>7667494
electricity
which is caused by quarks
don't think we've gone any deeper then that.
>>7667504
There is no need. Thermodynamic state variables are an emergent property of quantum mechanical considerations of molecules and the coulomb force.
>>7667494
Molecular mass, the zero-point energy of the substance, and the strength of cohesive intermolecular forces.
