That depends on what type of liquid created the steam. Obviously, different liquids have different evaporation, boiling, and melting points.

How does water freeze and steam condense at same temperature?

this phenomenom will only occur on the surface of Saturn's moon Mimas due to its unique environmental conditions.


What is the entropy at critical point?

The total entropy of steam at critical pressure and temperature is equal to 1.0785 btu/lb. (as liquid water does not exist at critical pressure and temperature the entropy of liquid is 0) *from Elementary Steam Power Engineering, E. McNaughton, 1923


How is heat generated?

When water is heated, there is a relation between temperature and pressure at which the water and steam are in equilibrium. This applies up to 374 degC at which the corresponding pressure is 222 bar abs or 3220 psi abs. Beyond this temperature liquid water cannot exist and the steam is said to be supercritical. At any temperature between 100 degC and 374 degC there will therefore be a pressure at which steam is just formed and this is said to be dry saturated steam. It is saturated because if the temperature drops even slightly at the same pressure, steam will condense. If at this same pressure the steam is further heated, it is said to be superheated because it is at a temperature higher than dry saturated steam would be. Superheated steam is desirable for use in steam turbines, because it prevents formation of water droplets as the steam is expanded through the turbine-the droplets could damage the turbine blades. In the supercritical region above 374 degC steam will always exist whatever the pressure, so the concept of superheat does not apply here.


What happens when steam hits a cold object like a plate?

The steam will condense and transfer its heat energy to the object.


Does steam has highest latent heat than boiling water?

Boiling water has a lower latent heat than steam. Steam is the transition from liquid to gas for boiling water. If by boiling water you mean liquid water at the temperature of 100 degrees Celsius then yes, steam has a higher latent heat.

What must you do to change steam into a liquid?

Either reduce its temperature or increase the pressure on it, and provide something on which the steam can condense.


What temperature does steam condense into water?

When it is under 100 degrees celsius


What does the condense mean?

To melt refers to the transformation from solid to liquid (think ice to water) To condense refers to the transformation from gas to liquid (think steam to water)


Is condense a physical property?

Yes. It is the temperature at which a gas condenses into a liquid.


What is the difference between dry steam and wet steam to clean?

DRY steam is superheated There is a temperature below which steam will start to condense into water droplets. This is called the saturation temperature, and it varies with the pressure of the steam. Steam that is exactly at its saturation temperature is called saturated steam. Steam that is below its saturation temperature contains droplets of moisture and is called wet steam. Steam that is above its saturation temperature is called superheated steam.


Does water and cloud and steam evaporate?

Clouds and steam are forms of evaporated water. Water is the main base for evaporation to occur. Bot clouds and steam can condense in a cool temperature, while water can bothe condense and evaporate. So they are not much alike.


Can you condense a liquid?

You can condense a liquid by putting in heat.


What temperature will dodecane gas condense to a liquid?

216 degrees


At what temperature will ice condense and then turn into a liquid?

32 Degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius Below this temperature H2O will remain in a solid form, above this temperature H2O will be in a liquid form.


What happens when gas cool down?

When cooled enough it will condense into a liquid. The required temperature changes with the substance.


What is the temperature at which a gas turns to a liquid?

Depend on what gas it is and at what pressure. Water turn to liquid at 100 C and 1 ATM and condense at 80 C if pressure is 0.5 ATM. Oxygen in air will condense to liquid at -183 C and Nitrogen at -196 C and 1 ATM.


Is it true The temperature at which water vapor begins to condense on solid objects is called the dew point.?

False, Dew Point is where water vapour begins to condense into a liquid
