Study the Behaviour of Entropy of Water at Supercooled State

Abstract

Water despite being a simple triatomic molecule has various anomalies. Anomalies which challenge theories to an extent that it becomes difficult to ignore them and force/attract researchers to study them. A lot of work has been done to explain the anomalies by studying dynamics of water in supercooled state. A supercooled state is reached when liquid is cooled beyond its freezing point such that it is still in liquid phase. There are theories according to which there exists a second critical point for water, the so-called LLCP(Liquid-Liquid Critical Point). Beyond LLCP liquid water exists in two different phases HDL(High Density Liquid) and LDL(Low Density Liquid) which according to some studies give rise to anomalies. ``Jumps'' are topic of interest while studying anomalies related to dynamics in the supercooled region. The aim of this study is to observe the anomalies related to the thermodynamics of water in the supercooled region and provide an explanation for the anomalies using Translational Jump Theory, via connecting the dynamics with thermodynamics.
