Why does antifreeze boil faster than water?
It does NOT boil faster than water. It has higher boiling point AND lower freezing point. - Antifreeze boils at about 197 c.
How do different temperatures affect water?
If the water is hot, (at boiling point) it will boil, if the water is cold, ( at freezing point) it will freeze.
Does drinking water boil at a lower temperature than salt water?
Yes, drinking water does boil at a lower temperature than salt water.
Why do you add antifreeze to the coolant?
coolant is a mixture of antifreeze and water (usually 50/50) If you were to use just water, you would not have either freeze protection or overheat protection. Water freezes at 32 degrees. Antifreeze could protect engine to -20 to -30 degrees. Water (with no pressure) will boil at 212 degrees. Antifreeze will delay "boil-over" to a much higher temperature (I am not sure of number)
Does water boil the same at sea level as it does at higher elevations?
Due to lower atmospheric pressure at altitude, water will boil at lower temperature.
Why can't liquid boil at a low pressure?
Liquids can boil at low pressure, and in fact do so at lower temperatures than when the pressure is high.
What temperatures does water boil at sea level?
Water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
Why is more time required to boil pasta in some places?
Water boils at different temperatures depending on the altitude. At higher elevations water will boil at a lower temperature. Since water will not get hotter than it's boiling point it will take longer to cook pasta at higher altitudes.
Can water boil at its freezing pointwhy or why not?
No. water cannot be at two different extreme temperatures simultaneously.
What can happen if you use straight antifreeze in your radiator?
If your use anything more concentrated than about half anitfreeze and half water, the radiator water will freeze at a considerably warmer temperature. There will be less protection. Also, antifreeze actually helps keep your car running cooler in summer. If you use straight antifreeze, the car will "boil over" at a much lower temperature. There will be less protection.
What causes antifreeze to come out the overflow?
when your engine is hot it causes the water to boil and the water and the anti freeze will come out of the overflow pipe.
Does water boil in a vacuum?
YesThis is because boiling is caused by the liquid water turning to gas which is not influenced directly by other materials. However, once in a vacuum the pressure is so low that the water will boil at much lower temperatures.
