Although we usually see water boiling at close to 760 mm Hg (14.7 psi) and 100oC it will boil at almost any appropriate combination of temperature and pressure up to the critical point of water at 373,94oC and 22,060 kPa.

Can you boil the water at room temperature?
yes,at room temperature by decreasing the pressure we can boil the water.
Why does water boil when the vapor pressure is equal to atmospheric pressure?
Because while atmospheric pressure is the greater of the two the vapour pressure of the water can not spontaneously form bubbles (ie boil).
Can boiling points of liquids be altered by pressure?
yes they can like water if you remove all the pressure form a vial and have water in it the water will boil at room temp. while if you add pressure to water it is harder to boil.
Does water boil at 220?
At standard pressure pure water boil at 100 0C or 212 0F.
Why wont the water boil after it has reached its boiling point?
If water is under pressure at all, which could be based on what the atmospheric pressure is, it will not boil at its prescribed temperature.
Why does plain water boil faster then salt water?
A liquid boils when the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure. The presence of salt in the water reduces the vapor pressure of the water at the temperature at which plain or distilled water will boil. Since the temperature of the salt water must be higher to reach the same vapor pressure as the atmosphere, it takes longer to boil.
Where water boils first in lower pressure or high atmospheric pressure?
in Lower pressure water does not have to get as hot to boil
Why does water boil faster in the mountains than the city?
There is Less atmospheric pressure on a mountain. As pressure goes down, so does the temperature required to boil water.
What temp will water boil in ceelsius?
The water boiling point in Celsius is 100 °C.
What can be done to raise the boiling point of water?
All you have to do to reduce the boiling point of water is go to a higher altitude and boil it.
What is the boiling of water in degrees celsius?
The amount of heat needed to boil water varies with the air pressure. Water in a vacuum will boil at room temperature.
How do you prepare carbon free water?
Boil the water till its boil . then it will be free from co2. ai bit dau
