Which outcome occurs when a substance surpasses its triple point during compression?

💡 Explanation

When surpassing the triple point during isothermal compression, the system transitions through an unstable state undergoing phase change because Gibb's free energy favours higher density state, allowing liquid as stable form at relevant pressure. Therefore a thermodynamically stable liquid phase emerges, not solid, which results at even higher pressures.
