Why does it take longer to boil an egg on nthe top of Mt Everest versus at sea level?
It should take virtually no time to boil an egg atop Mt. Everest, as the air is less dense (it is higher up) so there is less pressure keeping the water from undergoing a phase change and boiling.
Mount everest has a high pressure to boil water?

because there is very little air pressure up that high in the atmosphere.
Why does it take longer for water to boil when there's more of it?
It takes longer to boil because there is more of it that therefor takes longer to heat up. This is because a larger volume of liquid is needed to be heated to the same temperature as a small volume of liquid.
Can you boil water without heating?
Reduce the air pressure it exists in.The lower the pressure the lover the temp needed to boil it. That's why a cup of tea on top of mount Everest is just not too hot.
