Small city, BIG ammenities! That is Hidalgo, Texas. The City of Hidalgo is located on lands settled by Spanish -colonizer Jose de Escandon in 1749, as an adjunct to the new settlement of Reynosa, both part of colonial Spain until 1821. The desert settlement was mainly involved with cattle grazing for some 150 years.
When something changes phase from solid to liquid, or from liquid to gas, it takes energy to break the intermolecular interactions. These interactions between the water molecules are what make it solid. When you have ice, these interactions are strongest, which is why ice is hard.
A solid state example is the palladium-hydrogen system which has a solid solution phase (H 2 in Pd) in equilibrium with a hydride phase (PdH n) below the UCST at 300 Â°C. Above this temperature there is a single solid solution phase.In the phase diagram of the mixture components, the UCST is the shared maximum of the concave down spinodal and binodal (or coexistence) curves. The UCST is in general dependent on pressure. solid state example is the palladium-hydrogen system which has a solid solution phase (H 2 in Pd) in equilibrium with a hydride phase (PdH n) below the UCST at 300 Â°C.
