Ya ........ if you have an egg on the top of high mountain the altitude and less air density causes lower boiling points and when you get higher it reduces the boiling point of the water and it is due to atmospheric pressure.Boiling is directly proportional to atmospheric pressure which becomes lower when we go above the sea level example mountainous areas.

∙ 11y agoAt higher altitudes water boils at lower temperatures. At sea level water boils at 100 degrees C. At the top of a mountain, because of the decrease in atmospheric pressure, water boils at a lower temperature.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoAs altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases. The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the substance equals the atmospheric pressure. Therefore, as altitude increases, boiling point decreases, and vice versa.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoGenerally as pressure decreases boiling point decreases. At higher altitudes atmospheric pressure is lower, and therefore the boiling point of water is as well.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agothe pressure would be less at high places so there would be less opposition to evaporation. the boiling point would probably decrease
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoAt lower pressure the boiling point is lowered. And the pressure decrease with the altitude.

What is the boiling point of monster energy?
it depends on your altitude but under normal circumstances 212 Degrees Fahrenheit.
Why boiling point of water in Shimla in lower than that in Delhi?
It depends what your altitude is compared to sea level. The lower below sea level you are, the more atmospheric pressure there is thus increasing boiling point; pressure raises the boiling point. That is why your auto has a pressurized cooling system - to stop boil over.
What happens to the altitude and boiling point as the pressure is increased?
As altitude increases, pressure decreases, so boiling point decreases, so the liquid would boil at a lower temperature and would not be able to get as hot and remain a liquid. As pressure is increased, boiling point increases, meaning the liquid could get hotter than normal and remain a liquid.PV=nRT - pressure x volume = the number of moles x constant x temperature
What are the effects of impurities in boiling and freezing point?
AnswerImpurities tend to increase the boiling point and lower the freezing point.in a way boiling point of salty water > boiling point of fresh waterfreezing properties of salty water < freezing properties of fresh watermelting properties of salty water < melting properties of fresh water.Salt water, contains NaCl, which ionizes into Na and Cl ions. when ions are added to a solvent, such as water, they tend to increase the boiling point and lower the melting point.
What is the point at which a liquids vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure?
This temperature is called the boiling point, and indicates the temperature at which a liquid will assume a gaseous state, given the addition of the heat of vaporization.That is the boiling point.
Does melting point and boiling point of liquid changes from altitude to altitude?
The boiling point depends on altitude (pressure). The effect on the melting point is not significant.
How are melting and boiling points affected as altitude is increased?
Boiling point decrease at high altitude.
What would be the boiling point of alcohol at a higher altitude?
it depends on the altitude
Why does water boil at a lower temperature as altitude increases?
Air pressure affects the boiling point. Lower air pressure is present at higher altitudes.
What is the relation between the altitude compared to sea level and the boiling point of water?
In general, the higher the altitude, the lower the pressure, and the lower the pressure the lower the boiling point.
What is the boiling point of water at an elevation of 1.55 and times104 ft?
The boiling point of water at this altitude is 84,2 oC.
Is that true that boiling point of a liquid remains constant at all altitudes?
The boiling point is lower at high altitude.
How would the observed temperature be affected if distillation was performed on top of a mountain?
The boiling point temperature is lower at low pressure (altitude).
Where on earth where the boiling point of water is lower?
high altitude
Why the boiling point of water is 98 in Kaghan?
The boiling point of water decrease when the altitude increase and the atmospheric pressure decrease.
What are the considerations must be made when examining the boiling point?
The altitude at which you are making measurements must be considered when examining the boiling point.
Does freezing temperature change at higher altitudes?
Elevation has minimal affects on the freezing point of water as it doesn't deal with gas molecules as boiling does. Elevation affects the boiling point of water because the air pressure changes with elevation.
