{It is shown that stability depends only upon the equations of state, the opacities and the local thermodynamic state in the layer. Stability and instability can therefore be expressed in the form of stability equations of state which are universal for a given composition.}
{The stability equations of state are calculated for solar composition and are displayed in the domain $-14 \leq \lg \rho / \mathrm{[g\, cm^{-3}]} \leq 0 $, $ 8.8 \leq \lg e / \mathrm{[erg\, g^{-1}]} \leq 17.7$. These displays may be used to determine the one-zone stability of layers in stellar or planetary structure models by directly reading off the value of the stability equations for the thermodynamic state of these layers, specified by state quantities as density $\rho$, temperature $T$ or specific internal energy $e$. Regions of instability in the $(\rho,e)$-plane are described and related to the underlying microphysical processes.}
{Vibrational instability is found to be a common phenomenon at temperatures lower than the second He ionisation zone. The $\kappa$-mechanism is widespread under 'cool' conditions.}
