Water at sea level boils at 212 degrees F or 100 degrees C, but as you boil your water higher and higher above sea level, the temperature needed to boil water lowers.
Interesting point: Climbers ascending the highest mountains find that in the high altitude, water will not boil hot enough to cook food.

∙ 14y agoWater boiling is a physical change from H2O in the liquid state to H2O in the gas state. The water molecule itself does not undergo a chemical change. It retains its chemical identity while undergoing a physical change.

Chemical composition can only be altered in chemical changes.
When water is boiled, it is a change of state, which is a physical change.
The main difference and way to separate the the types of changes is that chemical changes alter the Chemical composition (e.g. Burning, or making new substances) and cannot be reversed.
Whereas Physical changes are a change in state, or other reversible changes that have no effect on the actual Chemical comp.

What is steaming?
Steam is hot vapor water that turns invisible after expanding. Steam is also a game distributor/library on your computer. When we boiled water, water get vaporized and they produces steam.
Does volume of the water change after water is boiled?
Absolutely. Try an experiment of boiling a pan of water on a stove in the kitchen. If you have 1 liter of water in the pan and boil it dry until the water has all gone, the volume of steam produced will fill the house.
When you take heat from water it turns into?
Boiling water will produce steam (water vapour). Eventually, if boiled long enough, all the water will have evaporated, with the risk of the bottom of the pan or kettle melting.
What is produced when water is heated to its boiling point?
steam, which is a water form of a gas
What chemical is produced when fuel is burned?
when an excess of oxygen is used CO2 and water (in the form of steam) is produced but if a quantity too small for the reaction is used CO is produced and again water (in the form of steam!) i hope this helps :)
Is boiled water distilled water?
No, boiled water is simply boiled. Distilled water is when the steam from the boiling is gathered and rebottled.
What is a ton of steam?
Steam from a ton of water boiled away to nothing.
Does everything that can steam contain water?
No. All liquids can be boiled to get steam.
What is the steam?
Steam is boiled up water that is over 100 degrees centigrade
What happens to water when it is boiled?
It changes to a gas (steam).
How is steam formed?
steam is created by vaporisation of the water on the ground or in a kettle.
If water is boiled will it turn into water vapor or steam?
When you boil water, a lot of air-bubbles appears on the surface. it is the water turning into steam.
In most power plants is water boiled to make steam?
yes
Where does water goes after it was boiled?
It turns into steam which goes off into the air
What is steaming?

How is steam produced?
Steam is a gas stage of water. You can produce steam by heating water to boiling point.
When you don't turn off a teakettle why is the water gone?
The water has turned into steam and boiled away.
