between IV and II by raising or lowering the temperature, as is possi- 

 ble in the case of some other substances, because the boundaries of the 

 region of existence of V are so nearly vertical that a change of tempera- 

 ture does not carry the pressure far enough away from the equilibrium

 volume from IV to II can be determined with some accuracy, however, 

 by taking pressure steps long enough to step over the region of V.
