What else can I help you with?
Can both liquid water and steam exist at 100 degrees Celsius?
Liquid water can exist at (and above) 100 degrees Celsius if the pressure is increased above one atmosphere (about 100 000 Pascals). The high pressure squeezes the molecules together, and does not allow them to separate into a gas. This forces it to remain as a liquid, despite the high temperature. Of course, water vapour (steam) can certainly exist above 100 degrees Celsius.If you're interested in how the two phases exist together, if you heat water to 374 degrees Celsius and increase the pressure to 218 atmospheres, the properties of the liquid and the vapour merge together to form only one "supercritical fluid" phase.
Can both liquid water and steam exist as 100ºC?
Yes, both liquid water and steam can exist at 100ºC. At this temperature, water transitions between liquid and gas phases through a process called vaporization. If water is contained or in a closed system, both liquid water and steam can coexist at 100ºC.
What happens when you mix supercool ice and superhot steam.which state of matter exist?
That would depend on the quantities of each form. If you had roughly equal masses of steam and ice, you would end up with water; probably lukewarm water. While the transition from state to state was occurring, you would have ice (solid water), and steam (gaseous water) and where the two met, there would be liquid water.
What happens if you continue to heat water after it becomes steam?
Water at standard atmospheric pressure cannot exist in the liquid state at temperatures greater than 212 F (100 C). If you continue to apply heat to a pot of boiling water, that energy is being used to make the phase transition from liquid to steam. Assuming you were able to contain the steam and water in the same container without increasing pressure (as pressure increases, so does the boiling/saturation temperature), the temperature of both the water and steam would remain 212 F until all the liquid water had evaporated. This mixture of liquid state and gas state water is called a saturated mixture, and can only exist at the boiling/saturation temperature for a given pressure. Once this saturated mixture has completely become a vapor, the temperature of the steam will begin to increase as you continue to apply heat to it.
What are Ice and steam and water?
They are examples of states of matter.
Does 1kg of water equals 1kg of steam?
Yes, 1kg of water equals 1kg of steam, as they are both forms of water in different states. The difference lies in their physical state, with water being in liquid form and steam being in gaseous form, but their mass is the same.
Is water up in the arctic?
Yes, within the arctic circle, liquid sea water and frozen ice, both exist.
Why does steam weigh less than water?
Steam is less dense than liquid water because steam is in the gaseous state, while water is in the liquid state. The molecules in steam are farther apart and have more kinetic energy compared to liquid water molecules, which results in steam having a lower mass per unit volume.
What is the state of water at -100 degrees celsius?
Water boils at 100 and turns into a gas (steam)
What kind of state of matter is steam?
It is a gas, assuming you are talking about dry steam. If it is wet steam, it is both a gas and a liquid.
What is the difference between steam distilled and distilled water?
Steam distilled water is produced by heating water to create steam, which is then condensed back into liquid form. Distilled water, on the other hand, is produced by boiling water and collecting the steam, which is then condensed into a separate container. Both methods remove impurities from the water, but steam distilled water may retain more of its natural minerals compared to distilled water.
Is Liquid water less dense or more dense?
Liquid water is more dense than ICE , and More dense than water vapour(steam). Liquid water is at its most dense at 2 oC. Water on freezing to ice expands by about 10% of its volume. This is because of the lattice arrangement of water molecules in ice., which does not occur in liquid water., Hence ice floats on water. (icebergs).
