What are the factors affect air pressure?
Three factors that affect air pressure are temperature, altitude, and water vapor.
How can changing water pressure affect boiling point?
Increasing the pressure increases the boiling temperature
How does changing temperature or pressure affect the solubility of gas in water?
As temperature (of the solvent) decreases and pressure (of the gaseous solute) increases the solubility of gases in water will increase.
How do you raise the pressure system on the baseboard heater?
Add water to the boiler. You should have an automatic pressure reducing water make up valve, somewhere near the boiler. If it feeds directly into the boiler, make sure the boiler is cool when you add. Normal pressure on a cool boiler should be around 12 psi. The pressure will rise as the water is heated. You need a minimum of 1/2 psi for every foot of rise in the loop. So 12 psi in the basement will allow most systems to have a rise of appx 24 feet to the highest strip of baseboard. Remember, the pressure relief valve on the boiler lifts at 30 psi, so you need to stay well below that when the boiler is up to temperature.
What two factores affect the boiling point of water?
Pressure & Temperature :) Apex
What can happen if you had a sudden drop on boiler steam pressure without a corresponding drop in boiler water temperature?
BOILER EXPLOSION- Caused by a sudden drop in pressure (failure on the steam side) without acorresponding drop in temperature.
What 3 factors affect the density of sea water?
Temperature, pressure, and common ion effect
What is the feed check valve of boiler?
The feed check valve of a boiler is on the line coming out of the boiler it is usually to prevent the water from going back in to the boiler its coming out of so it would build up excessive amounts of pressure which will cause the t&p valve to blow temperature and pressure

Boiler steam pressure?
What you meant by this question is uncertain. If you are asking about the definition then Boiler steam pressure is the pressure developed by a water steam boiler, else if you are asking about the Rated boiler steam pressure then it is the safe operating pressure a boiler can operate, else if you are asking about Maximum boiler steam pressure then it is the maximum pressure that a boiler can produce with out failure.
Why is to safety valve mounted on boiler drum?
the safety valve is mounted on the top of drum because, if the water level in boiler decreases a certain value, the temperature gets increased in water drum because of lack of water. So, increase in temperature result in high pressure in steam drum, as the safety valve is designed to withstand a certain pressure, after a cetain pressure, the safety valve is removed by high pressure of steam. this is why the safety valve is mounted on top of boiler drum. +++ Shall we sort out that lot? That answer is wrong. Its only link with water-level is that the valve has to be above the water anyway. If the boiler runs dry the safety-valve will not protect it. The safety-valve is there to prevent the steam pressure rising to a potentially a dangerous level. It is set to open at the boiler's designed working pressure.
What two factors affect the point of water?

How does changing temperature or pressure affect the solubility of gas in water?
As temperature (of the solvent) decreases and pressure (of the gaseous solute) increases the solubility of gases in water will increase.
How does pressure affect the temperature at which water boils?
There is a direct relationship between the temperature at which water boils and the air pressure on it. Higher pressure, higher boiling point. Lower pressure, lower boiling point.

What factors affect the melting and freezing points of water?
Temperature, atmospheric pressure and purity of the water.
