The one-component phase diagram of water is shown below, label the solid, liquid and vapor phases correspondingly and explain on the graph that the boiling point of water is lower in Mountain Himalayas than in Singapore. For a given temperature at 60 degree C, estimate the saturated vapor pressure Psat for water.

Use the above graph of the vapor pressure of water versus temperature to answer the following questions. \begin{equation} \begin{array}{l}{\text { a. At what point(s) does water boil at }} \\ {\text { standard atmospheric pressure? }} \\ {\text { b. At what point(s) is water only in the }} \\ {\text { liquid phase? }}\end{array} \end{equation} \begin{equation} \begin{array}{l}{\text { c. At what point(s) is water only in the }} \\ {\text { vapor phase? }} \\ {\text { d. At what point(s) is liquid water in }} \\ {\text { equilibrium with water vapor? }}\end{array} \end{equation}
