Water boils when its vapor pressure equals the vapor pressure of the surrounding atmosphere. The atmosphere surrounding the water exerts a pressure, preventing gas molecules escaping from the surface. At higher altitudes, this pressure is much lower so water will boil at a lower temperature.
The boiling point of water at this altitude is 84,2 oC.
Depends on the altitude of the location. In salt lake city, the altitude is about 4330 feet, which makes the water boiling point about 96 degrees Celsius (or 205F).
No, boiling point is not affected by volume. What will change is the amount of energy you need to put in to get it to boiling point.
The boiling point of water is dependent on the air pressure or altitude. On Mount Everest the boiling point of water is 69 0C.
Boiling point is a physical property. This is because when an element boils, it changes its state of matter, which is a physical change.
The boiling point of water at this altitude is 84,2 oC.
All you have to do to reduce the boiling point of water is go to a higher altitude and boil it.
The boiling point of water decrease when the altitude increase and the atmospheric pressure decrease.
high altitude
The boiling point of water decrease when the altitude increase; the value at Johannesburg is near 94 0C.
In general, the higher the altitude, the lower the pressure, and the lower the pressure the lower the boiling point.
The boiling point of water is lower at high altitude; the freezing point is practically not affected.
You would have to be somewhere VERY up high. the change in altitude would decrease the boiling point.
Depends on the altitude of the location. In salt lake city, the altitude is about 4330 feet, which makes the water boiling point about 96 degrees Celsius (or 205F).
The boiling point of a substance is the temperature where the molecules have enough energy to break the inter molecular bonds and form gas bubbles anywhere throughout the liquid. The higher the atmospheric pressure the more energy is required to form the bubbles and, therefore, the higher temperature is required. The boiling point of water varies depending on the weather ie the current atmospheric pressure. The boiling point of water decreases as the altitude increases.
100 co at sea level, it varies what altitude your at.
The boiling point of water changes with altitude. While it boils at 100C at sea level, at the summit of Mount Everest water would boil at a lower temperature of 72C.
