Water can remain liquid at a temperature above 100 degrees, C., when the pressure on it is greater than the pressure found at average sea level.

What is the state of liquid at 10 degrees Celsius?

If the liquid is water then it is 10 degrees above freezing point which is 0 degrees Celsius


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.


Can both liquid water and steam exist at 100 degrees Celsius?

Liquid water can exist at (and above) 100 degrees Celsius if the pressure is increased above one atmosphere (about 100 000 Pascals). The high pressure squeezes the molecules together, and does not allow them to separate into a gas. This forces it to remain as a liquid, despite the high temperature. Of course, water vapour (steam) can certainly exist above 100 degrees Celsius.If you're interested in how the two phases exist together, if you heat water to 374 degrees Celsius and increase the pressure to 218 atmospheres, the properties of the liquid and the vapour merge together to form only one "supercritical fluid" phase.


What substance become a liquid when his temperature is above 0 degrees Celsius?

Any substance with a melting point above this given temperature.

A substance has a freezing point of -38 degrees Celsius and a boiling point of 356 degrees Celsius at which temp would this substance be in its liquid state?

Anything above -38C and below 356C


What makes water in to solid and solid into liquid?

well it depends on the temperature because as u know water is originally a liquid but when the temperature hits 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius. And the solid becomes a liquid when its above the freezing point with is 31 degrees Fahrenheit or more above.


What is the difference between melting and boiling?

"Melting" is the point at which a solid becomes a liquid. Ice will become water at anything above 32 degrees Fahrenheit, or 0 degrees Celsius, for instance. "Boiling" is the point at which a liquid becomes a gas. Water will turn to steam (as it boils) above 212 degrees Fahrenheit or 100 degrees Celsius. boiling is when you give fire and melting is when you turn something into liquid.


What tempereture make solid to liquid?

Depends on what substance. For example, Ice which is a solid, liquifies above 0 degrees Celsius


Why do most microorganisms fail to use agar as a carbon source?

Because the agar remains a solid anywhere below 42 degrees Celsius. A typical environment is never going to raise above 42 degrees therefore it will always remain solid even in the human body (37 degrees Celsius). Having that said, most microorganisms cannot digest agar unless it is liquid.


What does 0 Celsius equal?

0 degrees Celsius is equal to the freezing point of water. This means that at 0 degrees Celsius (written as 0°C), water freezes and turns into ice under normal atmospheric pressure. Conversely, at temperatures above 0°C, water exists in its liquid form.


What does water change to above 100 degrees Celsius?

Steam. Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius.
