H2O above 100 deg C is an invisible gas (vapor). Above a pan of boiling water you see a cloudy "gas" , because the H2O has condensed into water droplets (still very hot) and it is those that you see. Some things like solidified carbon dioxide go from solid to vapor without a liquid phase at all.

Does boiling water in a pot on a stove create water vapor?

Yes, boiling water in a pot on a stove creates water vapor. As the water boils, it transitions from liquid to gas form, producing steam or water vapor.


Why does boiling water turn to vapor in the cold?

Boiling water turns to vapor in the cold because the temperature difference between the hot water and the cold air causes the water to evaporate and turn into vapor.


What is a sentence for water vapor?

I could see water vapor escaping from the boiling pot.


Is water vapor gas above boiling water?

Yes, water vapor is the gaseous phase of water that forms when water boils and reaches its boiling point.


How is boiling water and water vapor a reversible reaction?

Boiling water and the formation of water vapor is a physical change that is reversible because the process can be reversed by cooling the vapor back into liquid water. When water is heated to its boiling point, it transforms from liquid to gas (water vapor). If the vapor is then cooled, it condenses back into liquid water, demonstrating that the original state can be restored. This interchangeability between liquid and vapor forms signifies a reversible reaction.


Does groundwater contian water vapor?

If the groundwater is boiling, then yes. Otherwise, probably not. (The bubbles in boiling water are made of liquid water that has rapidly evaporated into water vapor gas.)


What cools when boiling occurs the water that leaves in the form of vapor or the water that remains the liquids?

The vapor


How does boiling occurs?

Boiling occurs when heat is supplied. Water is converted into vapor.


Are there more water vapor molecules above a beaker of water at room temperature or a beaker of water at its boiling point?

There are more water vapor molecules above a beaker of water at its boiling point because the higher temperature causes more water molecules to evaporate into the air. This results in a higher concentration of water vapor over the boiling water compared to room temperature water.


What is water vapor made up of?

Water heated to above the boiling point (steam), or below the vapor pressure for water in the gas sample with water vapor in it.


What are the bubbles in boiling water made of?

the bubbles in boiling water is water in a gasious state rising to the surface.


Does increasing the boiling point of water with additives also increase the vapor or steam temperature?

No, increasing the boiling point of water with additives does not increase the temperature of the vapor or steam produced. The temperature of the vapor or steam will remain the same as it is determined by the boiling point of water, regardless of any additives.
