SUMMARY
The term "Sat." in the temperature column refers to "saturation temperature," which is a critical concept in thermodynamics. This designation indicates the temperature at which a substance changes phase, specifically from liquid to vapor. The discussion clarifies that the saturation temperature is represented in parentheses, providing essential data for thermodynamic calculations.
