What happens when you put salt in boiling water?
The water evaporates and the salt remains in the beakerIt really depends on what you are trying to find out. If you want to know the effect of salt on the boiling point of water, then the answer is that salt water will boil at a higher temperature than pure water. So we can say that salt increases the boiling point of water, which is normally 100 degrees C.If you just want the observations of boiling salt water, then the answer is that as the water is boiling, it evaporates into the atmosphere as water vapour. So we actually lose water from the beaker (or whatever you are boiling the water in) into the air. If you boil it long enough, the water will eventually be lost altogether and you'll be left with dry salt crystals on the bottom and sides of the beaker.
How do you think boiling of water will change on sea level as compared to boiling water on a mountain top?
I think that the temperature required to boil water is lower at high altitudes (where the atmospheric pressure is lower) than at sea level.
What happenes to the temperature of a material when it changes state?
Usually it remains constant. For instance when you boil water and it turns into steam, the temperature of the boiling water remains at 100 Degrees Celsius throughout the process.
Can you boil the water at room temperature?
yes,at room temperature by decreasing the pressure we can boil the water.
When water in a kettle is boil it transform energy into what?
Boiling Water OBV!
Does it take longer to cook spagehtti at sea level or on a mountain?
The boiling temperature of water is dependent on the surrounding pressure. And air pressure decreases as you get higher up. As pressure decreases, so does the boiling point. This means that the water will start to boil faster on the mountain, but it will boil at a lower temperature. At a lower temperature, food takes longer to cook.
Can water boil at it's freezing point?
Water can not boil at its freezing point. Water can only boil at its boiling point. These are two contradictory points in temperature that would cancel each other out.
What is the boiling of water in degrees celsius?
The amount of heat needed to boil water varies with the air pressure. Water in a vacuum will boil at room temperature.
Why does it take sugar water longer to boil than plain water?
When a solute is added to a solvent, such as water, it increases the boiling point. Instead of boiling at 100 degrees Celsius (for water), it will boil at a higher temperature. This phenomenon is called boiling point elevation.
Does salt increase boiling time?
If your question means: If salt is added to water will it take longer to boil using the same conditions to boil fresh water? Adding salt elevates the boiling point of water so the mass of water has to be heated to a higher temperature to boil, therefore, boiling time is increased.
Why wont the water boil after it has reached its boiling point?
If water is under pressure at all, which could be based on what the atmospheric pressure is, it will not boil at its prescribed temperature.
When cooking instructions say bring to the boil then simmer how long do you let it boil before turing it to simmer?
Bring to boil means just wait for the water to start bubbling, then turn the heat down to let it simmer. Simmering is still boiling, but it isn't at as high of a temperature, so when the water starts boiling then turn it down to let it simmer, there is no need to keep it on high heat for any longer than it takes to make the water start boiling.
When boiling potatoes do you keep temperature at boil on high or drop down to medium?
Start your potatoes in cold water, bring them to a boil and reduce your temperature to medium (you get less boil over that way). Check for doneness (when a fork inserted into a potato enters easily). Drain and serve.
Can it possible fr tap water to start boiling below boiling point of water?
Tap water has a boiling point in any given conditions. You cannot alter the boiling point. You can alter the temperature at which it boils, by changing the ambient pressure for instance. Tap water boils at its boiling point. It cannot boil at any other point.
What is the effect of soluble volatile substance on the boiling point of a water solution?
A soluble volatile substance will lower the boiling point of a solution. The volatile substance will boil at a lower temperature than the water component, thus causing the solution to boil at a lower temperature.
How can you boil water at a temperature lower than 100 celsiuse?
Place the container of water in a vacuum & it should start to boil at room temperature.
Why does sugar water boil at a different temperature then normal water?
Sugar has a higher boiling temperature than that of water, so water with sugar dissolved into it will take more energy and raise to a higher temp before boiling.
