AI Thread Summary
P-V-T data for water is sought for educational purposes, specifically to create exercises for students to plot various diagrams. While the individual can generate data using models, real experimental data is preferred for its educational value. The discussion highlights challenges in finding published sources for this data. Suggestions include checking the Engineering Toolbox for steam tables, the CRC Handbook, and a specific website for steam tables. Additionally, the ASME has previously published relevant tables and diagrams, and the IAWPS is noted for developing standardized formulas for water and steam properties, which could be useful for obtaining accurate data.

I would like to have P-V-T data for water in order to enter them in an Excel spreadsheet and design some exercises for the students to plot different kind of diagrams using the same data.
I can generate the data using some suitable model, but I think that having real experimental data would be of additional educational value.
I have not been able to find a publication with the data, such as a website or an Atlas I can buy.
Any help?
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
I believe engineering toolbox site has some steam tables. Perhaps CRC handbook will have them as well?
 
Here is an interesting site: http://www.steamtablesonline.com/

ASME has published tables and diagrams in the past.

The IAWPS is one agency which develops formulas for water and steam properties, in order to standardize the values for the basic properties used in science and engineering.
 
It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
