adjective
- of or relating to a method of measuring vapor pressure or osmotic pressure by comparing solutions that have the same vapor pressure or osmotic pressure
Usage: technical; chemistry
Examples
- The isopiestic method is commonly used in physical chemistry to determine colligative properties of solutions.
- Researchers employed isopiestic measurements to compare the osmotic pressures of different salt solutions.
- Isopiestic experiments require careful temperature control to ensure accurate results.
- The isopiestic technique allows scientists to study solution behavior without direct pressure measurements.
