exist three distinct structural state regions, liquid, meso and gas. The g(r,ρ) also reveals the evidence of the hetero-phase fluctuations that are the precursor states to the percolation transitions. The structural data reproduced in Figure 5 show that at all intermolecular distances from highly repulsive overlap to long-range distances of four times the most probable pair distance, there are extremely slight, but statistically significant, structural differences, between gas, liquid and meso, as evidenced by the Entropy 2020, 22, 437 7 of 26 subtle deviations from uniform probabilities as a function of density along a supercritical isotherm. 1.98 1.96 1.94 1.92 1.9 1.88 1.86 1.84 1.82 1.8 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 L-J fluid T* = 1.5 RDF g(r = r0) GAS MESO LIQUID density (Nσ3/V) 1.08 1.07 1.06 1.05 1.04 1.03 1.02 1.01 1 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 L-J fluid T* = 1.5 RDF g(r = 2.0r0) GAS MESO LIQUID density (Nσ3/V) (a) (b) 1.005 1.0045 1.004 1.0035 1.003 1.0025 1.002 1.0015 1.001 1.0005 1 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 L-J fluid T* = 1.5 RDF g(r = 4.0r0) MESO LIQUID GAS density (Nσ3/V) 1.009 1.008 1.007 1.006 1.005 1.004 1.003 1.002 1.001 1 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 L-J fluid T* = 1.5 RDF g(r = 3.0r0) GAS MESO LIQUID density (Nσ3/V) (c) (d) FiFgiugruere5.5V. aVlauleuseosfotfhtehneonrmoramliazleidzepdapiradirisdtrisibtruitbiuontiopnropbraobialibtyiliftuynfcutinocntiaotnsaetlescetleedctiendteirnmteorlmecoulleacruplarir 1/6 1/6 dipsatairndceistarnancegsinragnrg0intog4rr0t(oa4–rd);(ar–0d(=);2r (σ=)2istσh)eisditshteandcisetaonfczeeorofzfeorocefo;rthce;sthtaetestpataerapmareatmerestearlsonalgonthge 000 suthperscuriptiecraclritsiocathleisrmoth(eTr*m=(1T.*35=);1p.3e5r)c;oplaetricoonlattriaonsittriaonsitaiotnTsc*a=t T1.3*3=61a.r3e36ataredautcredudcendsidtienss0it.i2e6s6 c (P0B.2)6a6n(dPB0.)3a7n6d(a0c.c3e7s6si(balcecevsosliubmleev(oPluAm))e[2(P5A],)a)s[2in5d],icaastienddbicyatveedrtbicyavlelirnteicsa.l lines. 2.2. Surface Tension 2.2. Surface Tension Thermodynamic equilibrium requires the surface tension of a vapour in coexistence with a liquid Thermodynamic equilibrium requires the surface tension of a vapour in coexistence with a liquid at subcritical temperatures to be positive. The first-order phase transition is characterized by a 2-phase at subcritical temperatures to be positive. The first-order phase transition is characterized by a 2-phase coexistence region with a latent heat, molar enthalpy change at constant temperature and a change coexistence region with a latent heat, molar enthalpy change at constant temperature and a change in in molar volume at constant pressure. If the surface tension, and hence also interfacial excess Gibbs molar volume at constant pressure. If the surface tension, and hence also interfacial excess Gibbs energy, were to be zero or negative, first-order coexistence with phase separation would not be possible energy, were to be zero or negative, first-order coexistence with phase separation would not be as the two states would spontaneously inter-disperse. This is what happens at, and above, the critical possible as the two states would spontaneously inter-disperse. This is what happens at, and above, the temperature between the limits of existence of gas and liquid states on a p-T density surface. critical temperature between the limits of existence of gas and liquid states on a p-T density surface. This general phenomenology of a critical density hiatus can be further understood by considering This general phenomenology of a critical density hiatus can be further understood by considering the role of surface tension. If the percolation locus PA is the boundary of the existence of the gas or the role of surface tension. If the percolation locus PA is the boundary of the existence of the gas or liquid states for supercritical temperatures, it must connect up with the boundary for the non-existence liquid states for supercritical temperatures, it must connect up with the boundary for the non-existence of the metastable gaseous and liquid states for sub-critical temperature, i.e., the vapour or liquid of the metastable gaseous and liquid states for sub-critical temperature, i.e., the vapour or liquid spontaneous decomposition spinodals. The spinodal lines are often defined operationally by the spontaneous decomposition spinodals. The spinodal lines are often defined operationally by the absence of a barrier to nucleation of the new phase. An alternative definition, however, is the point at which the surface tension of metastable supersaturated liquid-gas goes to zero, as suggested by He and Attard [26]. At Tc, when the percolation lines PA and PB intersect, there is no barrier to nucleation; hence the surface tension must go to zero at the different coexisting respective densities of gas and liquid. Evidence that this indeed happens can be found in a Monte Carlo computer calculation of the surface tension of Lennard–Jones fluids by Potoff and Panagiotopoulos [27]. In the original interpretation of their MC results, these authors overlooked the fact that the surface tension becomes zero at a finite RDF g(r) RDF g(r) RDF g(r) RDF g(r)PDF Image | Supercritical Fluid Gaseous and Liquid States
