Water boils at 100 degrees centigrade. Water molecules in a liquid are always bumping against each other, but the attraction between them is strong enough to keep them held to each other. It is not strong enough to hold them tight like in a solid, but it does keep them together in a liquid. As the temperature rises, the molecules move faster and faster. When the liquid reaches the boiling point, the attraction between the molecules is no longer strong enough to hold them together. A number of them move so fast, they leave the liquid. That is called boiling.

Where are the boiling points and melting points of different substances?
M.P=min TEMP From where a solid begins to melt. B.P=MIN TEMP FROM WHERE( MELTED SOLID) OR LIQUID BEGINS to boil.
How are the melting points and boiling point of molecular compounds different from ionic compounds?
they have diferent temp. also the ionic compounds dont melt they steam
Does greater mass change boiling temp?
The boiling point is not changed.
When was Boiling Points created?
Boiling Points was created on 2004-01-05.
When did Boiling Points end?
Boiling Points ended on 2005-01-01.
How do celsius and Fahrenheit express freezing and boiling points of water differently?
Not sure that they are different necessarily, just different scales. The freezing and boiling points of water are the same no matter which scale is used. In degrees, the Celsius scale measures the temp at 0 degrees for freezing and 100 degrees for boiling. Farenheit scales measures the freezing point at 32 degrees and the boiling point at 212 degrees.
Temperature in which a gas becomes a liquid?
Each gas condenses at a different temp. as for water vapor it condenses at 212F or 100C
What the temp of boiling water on f?
212F
What is the boiling temp for Coca-Cola?

Ionic compounds have boiling points that are often above?
Ionic compounds have boiling points of
When liquid is boiling its temp doesnt change?
At the boiling point the temperature remain unchanged.
Molecular compounds have relatively high boiling points?
false they tend to have low boiling points
