Atmospheric gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, helium, carbon dioxide, etc are soluble iin water. As water is heated, the solubility of these gases in water decreases, so they are released from the water in gaseous form, explaining the bubbles. Also, as you boil the water, the water itself turns from liquid to gas, so the bubbles are a combination of water vapor along with other gases that were dissolved in the water.

As the pressure in a vessel containing water is reduced with a vacuum pump it begins to boil at some point but will it continue to boil if the vessel is sealed after it begins to boil?

If the vacuum pump is on, the water will continue to boil. If the vacuum pump is off as the vessel is sealed, the boiling will stop at a point of equilibrium.


Does food colouring affect the time it takes for water to boil?

Food colouring does not affect how long it takes for water to boil. Both clear water and water with food colouring boil at the same speed with no real obvious differences in time.

How can you get water to boil below 100 degrees?

the boiling of water is depends upon the outer pressure which acting on it, when water starts to boiling, that time bubble(water vapour) is produced and due to density differents it's goes upward. but when the pressure will decreases, that time it's easy to bubble to go upward direction, and its boils at a low temperature(below 100*c). and when the pressure increases that time the bubble need more force to go upward. so............................
