The energy required to boil a substance
As pressure increases the temperature required to vaporize water is less. So with increase in pressure there is decrease in temperature required to boil so latent heat also decreases.
The amount of energy required to turn a mole of a liquid into a gas
5 to 10 min
5 to 10 min
The amount of energy it takes to boil a substance
Most microorganisms which cause infections or diseases can't survive at the temperature required to make water boil.
True
Latent heat is the amount of energy that is needed to change the state of matter. Either from a solid to a liquid, from a liquid to gas or vice versa. For example if you boil a kettle of water, energy or latent heat is added to the water from the element within the kettle. The water will heat up and eventually turn to steam.
100 degrees Celsius
heat
There is Less atmospheric pressure on a mountain. As pressure goes down, so does the temperature required to boil water.
