Ice VI

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Phase diagram of water

Ice VI is a form of ice that can exist at high pressure on the order of 1 GPa (= 10,000 bar ) and temperatures of approx. 130 to 355 Kelvin (-143 ° C to 82 ° C); see also the phase diagram of water. His discovery and the other high pressure forms of ice were published by PW Bridgman in January 1912.

properties

Eis VI has a density of 1.31 g / cm³ and has a tetragonal crystal system with the space group P4 2 / nmc ; the unit cell contains 10 water molecules and has the dimensions a = 6.27 Å , c = 5.79 Å. With ice VII and liquid water it has a triple point at approx. 82 ° C and 2.22 GPa and with liquid water and ice V at 0.16 ° C and 0.6324 GPa = 6324 bar.
