hot or extremely hot temperatures, for example, when you have a pot full of water and you turn on the burner, the water temperature will increase. eventually if you leave the burner on, all the water in that pot will evaporate because the water particles are trying to escape the boiling temperatures.

∙ 14y agoWater(a solvent) boils at 212 degree Fahrenheit. But if you start adding a lot of salt(a solute) the temperature required to make it boil goes up. Actually numbers depend on the amount of salt, water, and what kind of salt. But just know that adding salt means water would have to raise above 212 degree Fahrenheit to boil.

∙ 11y agoYes, this how pressure cookers work. In addition, this is the reason that water boils at slightly different temperatures depending on your altitude.
In the case of something like a pressure cooker, keep in mind that the second the pressure is relieved, you'll get a burst of extremely hot steam...

Why is the boiling point lower on the top of Mt. Everest?
Because of the pressure. As you higher the ground the pressure increase which make the boiling temp of liquid lower that expected.
What is the term for the Boiling of a liquid caused by decrease in pressure rather than by an increase in temperature?
Cavitation
Why boiling point is increased with the increase of external pressure?
A definition of boiling point is when the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the ambient atmospheric pressure, thusly if you increase the pressure the vapor pressure must also increase and to do this you have to increase the temperature. Shinolaman
What can a boil be defined as?
Boiling, a type of phase transition, is the rapid vaporization of a liquid, which typically occurs when a liquid is heated to its boiling point, the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the pressure exerted on the liquid by the surrounding environmental pressure.
What is the relationship of boiling point with atmospheric pressure?
The normal boiling point (also called the atmospheric boiling point or the atmospheric pressure boiling point) of a liquid is the special case in which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the defined atmospheric pressure at sea level, atmosphere
How can the boiling point of a liquid be raised without adding soluble impurity?
The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure, or the pressure above the liquid. So, to increase the boiling point without adding a solute, one can increase the pressure above the liquid.
What is the relationship between pressure and the boiling points of liquid?
As atmospheric pressure increase so does the boiling pont, when atmos. pressure decreases so does boiling point. A liquid boils when its vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure.
Why an increase in vapour pressure stop boiling?
An increase in pressure can stop boiling until at an increased temperature the vapor pressure equals the external pressure. That is the definition of boiling, when the vapor pressure equals the external pressure than the liquid will boil.
What is ideas about vapour pressure to explain how impurities increase the boiling point of water?
The boiling point is the point at which the vapor pressure of the liquid reaches atmospheric pressure. So, if you add impurities (solutes) to the pure liquid, the theory is that those molecules get in the way of the solvent molecules, and at the surface that results in a LOWER vapor pressure of the liquid. This then results in an INCREASE in the boiling point, because remember that boiling point is when vapor pressure = atmospheric pressure.
Why is the boiling point lower on the top of Mt. Everest?
Because of the pressure. As you higher the ground the pressure increase which make the boiling temp of liquid lower that expected.

How does the boiling point of a liquid vary with pressure?
Something boils when its vapor pressure equals the atmospheric (barometric) pressure above it. When the two are equal, that defines the boiling point.Therefore, you can either boil something by heating the liquid, and thus raising its vapor pressure (vapor pressure goes up with temperature), or you can boil something by reducing the atmospheric pressure above it until it matches the vapor pressure.See the Related Questions links to the left for more information about how the boiling point of water changes with elevation and atmospheric pressure.
Why food is cooked in pressure cooker?
An increase in pressure allows an increase in the boiling temperature of the liquid in the cooker. At 15 psi (the highest rated home kitchen pressure cooker) the boiling temperature of water is 250 degrees F.

Is it possible for distilled water in liquid form reach a temperature of 105 degrees Celsius. why or why not?
Sure. Boiling point is related to pressure. Increase the pressure and boiling will occur at a higher temperature.
When atmospheric pressure increases what happpens to the boiling temperature of a liquid?
The boiling temperature of a liquid increases as the gas pressure a the liquid's surface increases.
