When boiling water, the elements do not seperate. The only substance that evaporates is water as 'steam'.

What are elements in acetone?
Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
Are hydrogen and oxygen compounds or elements?
Hydrogen and oxygen are elements.
Hydrogen oxygen and chlorine are?
Hydrogen, oxygen and chlorine are elements.
How many hydrogen bonds does Oxygen have?
Oxygen doesn't have any hydrogen bonds. A hydrogen bond is when a hydrogen atom is bonded with an electronegative atom, such as oxygen. Oxygen all by itself does not have hydrogen bonded to it. It is simply written as 02.
What are water droplets made of?
im not sure im only 10 but try ask.com i think it comes from clouds
Why is the boiling point of H2O higher than boiling point of H2S?
Because of hydrogen bonding. Oxygen, nitrogen, and fluorine have a high boiling point.
Why is the boiling point of water greater than hydrogen sulfide?
because in water between hydrogen and oxygen hydrogen bonds are more stable but it is not in dihydrogensulphide .
How is particular gas an element?
Examples are: oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, etc.
What property of water is the same after it evaporates?
The chemical structure of the molecules. 2 Hydrogen connected by one Oxygen
Can water be separated into hydrogen and oxygen by boil physical change or chemical change?
Water cannot be separated into hydrogen and oxygen by boiling. Boiling is a physical change which means the molecule doesn't change at all--liquid water and water vapor are both H2O. Water can be separated into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity, this would be a chemical change.
Is the boiling point hydrogen or oxygen colder?
It is simply the water that freexes. Water is not simply a mixture if hydrogen and oxygen. The two elements are bound together to form water molecules. So it must be treated as its own substance. The behavior of water cannot be explained using the behavior of elemental hydrogen or oxygen. Its properties are different from its constituent elements.
Does boiling decompose water?
No. Boiling water just changes the state of matter. From a liquid to a gas. still 2 hydrogen and still 1 oxygen
What happens when you mix liquid hydrogen with liquid oxygen?
You get a mixture of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. If this is done at ordinary atmospheric pressures, the oxygen will probably freeze, since its melting point is above the boiling point of liquid hydrogen. (I'm not sure of the solubility of solid oxygen in liquid hydrogen.)
What is the difference between boiling water and decomposing water?
when vapour pressure>/ = atmospheric pressure then called boiling. sepration of water in hydrogen and oxygen is called decomposition.
Why is water formed when you mix hydrogen and oxygen gases?
Water is H2O. 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. Water is not formed when you mix hydrogen and oxygen. An explosive mixture of hydrogen and oxygen is formed. When you burn hydrogen in oxygen, the resulting compound is water. When you boil water the result is steam, or water vapor. Boiling does NOT separate the hydrogen and oxygen. An electrical current is needed to separate the hydrogen and oxygen. CAUTION: Do NOT put salt in the water to speed up the electrolysis of water. It changes the products. instead of hydrogen and oxygen, you get hydrogen, chlorine (gas), and sodium hydroxide. The last two are very poisonous.
How do you separate hydrogen and oxygen gas after you make it from electrolysis?
Use a distillation column. It cools down the gases to below the boiling point of oxygen at high preassure. Oxygen condenses and forms a liquid that can be tapped from the column while hydrogen remains a gas. Why not separate the electrodes used in the electrolyzation process and trap hydrogen at one and the oxygen at the other? It is a lot easier, and probably a lot less dangerous (as a hydrogen and oxygen gas mixture is explosive).
What is vapour?
a pure gas of oxygen and hydrogen The water cycle is driven by the Sun's energy. When water evaporates, it turns into the invisible gas called water vapour.
