Expert Solution

True for water:

1. The solid is less dense than the liquid

2. High pressure will cause the solid to become liquid

3. The molecules are closet in the liquid phase

4. In phase diagram, the solid - liquid coexistance line has a negative slope

True for most other substance:-

1. The solid is more dense than liquid

2. High pressure will cause liquid to become solid

3. The molecules are closest in solid phase

4. In phase diagram, the solid - liquid coexistence line has a positive slope
