What is the boiling point of water on sea level?
995 degrees celcius
What is the boiling and freezing point of the Fahrenheit scale?
Of water, 212 and 32 degrees, respectively.
Why boiling point of water in Shimla in lower than that in Delhi?
It depends what your altitude is compared to sea level. The lower below sea level you are, the more atmospheric pressure there is thus increasing boiling point; pressure raises the boiling point. That is why your auto has a pressurized cooling system - to stop boil over.
Boiling point of water at sea level in Fahrenheit?
212F for pure water.
Does 139 Celsius mean its cold?
no... 139 Celsius is above the boiling point of water.
What happens to boiling point above sea level?
As you go above sea level, the atmospheric pressure decreases, and so the boiling point also decreases to below 100ºC.
Does boiling point of water change as you move above sea level?
yes the boiling point changes with elevation. the higher the elevation the lower the boiling point.
What is the boiling point of water in desert?
The boiling point of water depends upon the elevation above sea level. At sea level, water boils at 100 degrees C. The boiling point decreases as altitude increases. The boiling pint in a desert would depend upon the elevation of that particular location in a desert.
What would happen to the boiling point of water at 8000 m above sea level where air pressure is lower?
You would probably be at a higher altitude, and your water would boil below the usual value of ~100 degrees.
What happens to the boiling point of water at altitudes above sea level?
The temperature decreases the higher you go.
Atlanta, Georgia, is situated at 1,050 feet above sea level. What is the boiling point in Atlanta?
The boiling point of water in Atlanta, Georgia, will be slightly lower than the standard boiling point of 212°F (100°C) due to its higher elevation of 1,050 feet above sea level. The boiling point of water decreases by about 1°F for every 500 feet increase in elevation. So, the boiling point in Atlanta would be around 210°F (99°C) or slightly lower.
What may happen to the boiling point of a substance if there are impurities present?
The boiling point won't decrease
How do you turn a liquid to gas?
Heat it past its boiling point.
How would the air pressure at the Dead Sea affect the boiling point of water?
The boiling point would rise as the pressure rises
What is the boiling point of water in Bangalore?
the boiling point for water is always 100 degrees celcius - no mater where you are. The boiling point of the water varies from place to place depending upon the height of the location from the sea level. As you go high from sea level the boiling point of the water goes down . The Banglore is located at 3000ft above sea level so the boiling point of water in Banglore remains around 96 degree centigrade to 97 degree centigrade
What happends to the boiling point of a substance when pressure above it decreases?
The boiling point will also decrease in this case.
When does liquid water turn to gas?
At sea level, liquid water boils and becomes a gas at 212º F, or 100º C. Due to lower surrounding pressure it has a lower boiling point at higher altitudes (ex. boiling point is 202º F in Denver, CO, about 5,000ft. above sea level), and a higher boiling point at lower altitudes.
