How would lakes oceans and the atmosphere be affected if water had different freezing and boiling points?

Lakes and oceans would be effected because if the boiling point changed, the water could evaporate...not sure about the atmosphere. Sorry!


Which substance do you expect to have the greatest evaporation rate?

Substances with lower boiling points tend to have higher evaporation rates, as they can more easily transition from a liquid to a gas. Therefore, substances such as acetone or ethanol, which have low boiling points, would be expected to have higher evaporation rates compared to substances with higher boiling points like water or oil.


Why would a liquid have two different boiling points?

possibly if it has been contaminated by other substances (as compared to original boiling point - it seems as though it has 2 different boiling points) things such as sodium chloride (table salt) raise the boiling point of water and lower its melting point note though that a pure liquid can never have 2 different boiling points - the boiling point is a property of a a liquid and will never change no matter what. alternatively if the fluid concerned is a mix of 2 different liquids (eg. alcohol mixed in water) the liquid with the lower boiling point (eg. alcohol) will boil off first, then the remaining fluid will continue heating up until the 2nd boiling point is reached (eg. of water). thus the fluid seems to boil at 2 different temperatures


Do all metals have low boiling points?

First of all I would like to say that Metals usually have very high melting and boiling points. If you really find no mistake in this question then the answer is certainly NO. But if you feel now that the question is wrong and it would be "non metals" in place of "metals" then the answer would certainly be Yes.


For 4 cups of boiling water do you boil 4 cups of water or do you measure water after boiling?

you measure the water before boiling. after boiling would be more tricky.


What would the temperature of a pot of water be if you continued heating for 10 minutes after it had already started boiling?

If the water is actively boiling, it is never more than 100 degrees Celsius (212°F).When water is not boiling (because of pressure or lack of nucleation points), it can become hotter than 100°C, a process known as superheating.

What is the difference of boiling points between sea water and normal water?

Sea water has a higher boiling point than water, meaning that it will have to be heated more then pure water to boil. This temperature depends on the concentration of the salt in the salt water. The boiling point of normal water at normal pressure is 100C/212 F while for sea water it is 2 C higher or more depending on the salt concentration/impurities in the sea water. The difference in the boiling points would be 2 C or greater.


What element would melt in boiling water?

What is the boiling point and freezing point of fahrenheit?

Fahrenheit is a person or a temperature scale, while boiling and freezing points are physical properties of chemicals. You need to be specific in asking which chemical's boiling and freezing points. Water has a freezing point of 32 degrees F, and a boiling point of 212 degrees F.


Could someone describe properties that would help you to distinguish an ionic compound from a molecular compound?

Ionic compounds typically have higher melting and boiling points compared to molecular compounds, as they have strong electrostatic forces between oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds also tend to be soluble in water and conduct electricity when dissolved, due to the presence of free ions. In contrast, molecular compounds have lower melting and boiling points, are often insoluble in water, and do not conduct electricity in their pure state.
