Boiling points: Propanol: 97.1 oC Isopropanol: 82.3 oC So yes, propanol has a higher boiling point than isopropanol. Since both isomers can hydrogen bond, the difference may be due to the fact that propanol, due to its more linear shape, is able to pack more densely than isopropanol (as verified by propanol's density of 0.803 g/ml vs. isopropanol's 0.786 g/ml) and experience more London Dispersion forces.

∙ 10y agoIt doesn't boil faster for a given quantity of heat and volume of fluid, unless its latent heat of evaporation is less than that of water, but it boils at a far lower temperature.

∙ 7y agoBecause the enthalpy of vaporization of 1-propanol is higher than the enthalpy of vaporization of water I suppose that water is faster evaporated.

What would a diagram look like for the question Does salt water boil faster than plain water?
yes salt water does boil faster
Is evaporating rubbing alcohol on skin endothermic?
Water evaporation is an endothermic process.
Does salt water boil fast?
Salt water boils HOTTER, not necessarily faster.
Does salt water boil faster than fresh water?
Yes salt water does boil faster than fresh water. To be honest, if you put any kind of seasoning in a warming pot, it sparks a reaction.
What is hot water made of?
hot water is made of molecules that can move faster and faster and you can boil or microwave the water to make it become hotter and hotter
How can you heat rubbing alcohol?
Boil it like water
What happens when you boil alcohol?
Alcohol has a lower boiling point than water. Naturally the alcohol evaporates leaving the flavanoids and the water. If you boil 100 % alcohol, then it would act like plain water. It will boil until it all evaporates.
What would a diagram look like for the question Does salt water boil faster than plain water?
yes salt water does boil faster
Why does vodka make water boil faster?
Because the boiling point of ethanol (the alcohol in vodka) is lower than that of water.
Is evaporating rubbing alcohol on skin endothermic?
Water evaporation is an endothermic process.
Does water boil faster than salt water why?

Will water boil faster if there is less of it?
A small amount of water will reach it's boiling point sooner than a large amount of water. It will not boil faster.
Which liquid will boil last water or mercury or alcohol?
water
Dose soda boil faster then water?
no it does not
Does drinking water boil faster then salt water?
yes
Can you boil rubbing alcohol?
I am not sure about using alcohol; however, I can share with you depending on where the boil is located, soaking the area in warm water with Epsom salts, or a warm sitz bath is very effective in bringing the boil to a head. Hydrogen Peroxide is helpful if the boil is open. Many boils have to be lanced to allow the puss and infection to be released, whereby, the warm water/Epsom salt soaks/baths are more effective. The Epsom salt and warm water help to draw out the puss and encourage healing.
Dose saltwater boil faster then plane water?
no
