Please bear with me. I'm sorry if I'm hard to follow.
I know that under 1 standard atmosphere of pressure, water has the following properties:
Freezing/melting point of 0 Celsius
Boiling/condensing point of 100 Celsius
Maximum density of 1.0 g/cm^3 achieved at 4 Celsius
Here's my question: If water were under 0.5 standard atmospheres of pressure or 2 or 3 standard atmospheres of pressure, what numbers would correspond with the above properties and most importantly, would the Maximum density still be 1.0 g/cm^3 and would that still be achieved in the liquid phase?
I do NOT need to know about extreme environments like the high pressures at the bottom of the ocean, or like the vacuum of space. That data is irrelevant to me because I'm only considering pressures at which breathable atmospheres would exist.
Thank you very much and I would love a formula and numbers or a link to a table regarding the all-important MAXIMUM density question: Is the MAXIMUM density that water achieves always 1.0 g/cm^3 under "air-like" conditions that would exist in a range of atmospheric pressures? (not under water)
