Clapeyron–Clausius equation
Clapeyron–Clausius equation Equation that relates the pressure and temperature at which a phase change occurs in a closed system. dP/dT = ΔHv/TΔV, where P is the pressure, T the absolute temperature, ΔHv the heat absorbed per mole during the phase change, and ΔV the change in molar volume.
