Clausius-Clapeyron relation
The Clausius-Clapeyron relation, named after Rudolf Clausius and Émile Clapeyron, is a way of characterizing the phase transition between two states of matter, such as solid and liquid. On a pressure-temperature (P-T) diagram, the line separating the two phases is known as the coexistence curve. The Clausius-Clapeyron relation gives the slope of this curve. Mathematically,

Clausius-Clapeyron equation
The Clausius-Clapeyron equation predicts the temperature dependence of vapor pressures of pure liquids or solids:

where P is the vapor pressure, P° is a vapor pressure at a known temperature T°, H is an enthalpy of vaporization if the substance is a liquid or an enthalpy of sublimation if it's a solid, R is the ideal gas law constant , and T is the temperature (in kelvins).
