The Unknow Phase of Matter

God lord but Steve Mould is a brilliant communicator of science.

I've never really understood super critical fluids - even though I've posted about them before, but today's video - especially the part from about 10:20 through 14:20 or so - makes for a brilliant explanation of why fluids go supercritical at higher temperatures.

The use of the entropy and potential energy graphs in combination lays out the argument for supercriticality brilliantly.

Thanks, Steve...thteve.
