Guenter:

My knowledge of German is minimal; my attempt at translation of
Aggregatszustand is "aggregation state"
Depending on context here are some options.  The first two are probably
what you want.

   Physical state or state of matter
   phase, particularly if referring to a phase diagram
   condensed phase (liquids and solids)
   in thermodynamics, state implies a certain pressure and temperature, as
   well as phase (standard state, equation of state)

Hope this helps.

Subject:  [TN] English expression




Hi all

Could someone give me the English expression to describe in what state (
solid, liquid, gas ) a substance is. In German we call it Aggregatszustand
( just a hint for those with German background ). Thanks a lot.

Best regards

Guenter
