Specific volume is defined as the volume occupied by a unit mass of a substance. It is an important thermodynamic property, particularly in the study of gases, liquids, and solids in various phases and conditions. Mathematically, the specific volume (\\( v \\)) can be expressed as: \\\[ v = \\frac\{V\}\{m\} \\\] where: - \\( V \\) is the volume of the substance, - \\( m \\) is the mass of the substance.
