Baguio City, Phillipines lies at almost a mile elevation above sea level (4,760 feet). At this altitude, water will boil at about 85°C. The boiling point of water at sea level is 100°C. While at altitude water will boil faster, the temp will remain lower.

On the celsius temperature scale water freezes at and boils at degrees?
Freezes at 0, boils at 100
In a pressure cooker water boils at a temperature?
Yes it does.
What is the temperature of water when it begins boiling?
The boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit. However, water boils at a lower temperature at higher altitude. Salt water boils at a higher temperature than pure water.
At 100 degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit boils water?
Celsius
If water boils at 80 degrees Celsius what is it in Fahrenheit?
80ºC = 176ºF
Which boils quicker warm or cold water?
cold water does.
Would you expect the boiling point of water in Baguio city be higher or lower that 100 degree Celsius why?
This has been asked over and over recently. Is this part of an exam or a class? Boiling point decreases with altitude because there is less pressure. The water will boil when the vapor pressure equals the air pressure. Baguio city is about 1500-1600 meters above sea level, making its temperatures roughly 8 degrees C less than the sea level areas of the Phillipines. For every 1000 feet in elevation, the boiling point of water decreases about 1 degree C. Very roughly, Baguio city is at 4500 feet elevation. The boiling point of water at Baguio city should be about 4.5 degrees C less than 100 degrees C, or 95.5 degrees C.
How do pressure cookers work and are they really much quicker?
Pressure cookers work because when you increase pressure, water boils at a higher temperature. Water normally boils at 212 degrees F. Under 15psi of pressure (standard in a pressure cooker), it boils at 257 degrees F. Since your food is cooking at a higher temperature, it will cook faster.
Why is heat important when drying things?
water boils at 100c, but as the temp above zero rises, more and more water turns to vapour, hence clothing dries quicker the higher the temperature.
Where does water go to when it boils?
when water boils it evaporates in to air
Why on a summer day would a Florida beach be cooler than in Orange Grove that is 2 km in land?
because a grove absorbs heat quicker than the beach, plus the water cools the sand at the beach.
What water boils faster salt water vinegar water or fresh water?
saltwater boils the fastest
What happeans to water when it boils?
when water boils it simply evapourates and broke steamy particles
When water boils what degree in Celsius does it reach?
Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius
At what elevation Baguio City located and what should be the boiling point of water in Baguio City?
The elevation is 1540 metres and so, the boiling temperature of water will be approx 94.7 deg C.
What type of water boils faster salt or fresh water?
The water that boils fasteris fresh water because salthas an effect on water.
Does liquid water boils as it turns to ice?
Steam condences into water, water freezes in to ice, ice melts into water, water boils to steam
