As external pressure such as atmospheric pressure on liquid increases its boiling temperature?
At high pressure the boiling point is higher.
What will happen to the atmospheric pressure as the altitude increases?
Atmospheric pressure will decrease as altitude increases.
How does temperature affect the atmospheric pressure of a place?
when temperature of air increases it becomes less dense and expands rising up which causes the pressure to drop
Is sound produced when there are increases in pressure or oscillations in pressure?
The speed of sound does not change with atmospheric pressure. The speed of sound changes with temperature.
When the pressure of a gas increases at constant temperature its volume?
Temperature increases as pressure increases.
Why does the height of the column in a barometer changes as atmospheric pressure changes?
As the atmospheric pressure changes, the force pushing on the surface of the liquid changes. Therefore,the height of the liquid in the tube increases as the atmospheric pressure increases.
How temperature affects pressure?
as pressure increases, temperature increases
Why would water boil at less than 100 degrees on top of a mountain?
The boiling point of any liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure. So if the atmospheric pressure is lower, it will take a lower temperature to make the vapor pressure equal to that of atmospheric pressure. At hill-stations, the air is generally thinner due to the altitude and the atmospheric pressure is also lower. Here, it requires less than 100oC temperature to reach the point where the vapor pressure of water reaches that of air. So, water boils below 100oC at hill stations.
What happens to the temperature if the pressure of a gas increases?
The pressure increases.
What will happen to the pressure when temperature increases?
As pressure increases, temperature increases and volume decreases.
As pressure increases temperature does what?
The temperature rises.
What term defines the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure?
The temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure is called THE BOILING POINT.
