Will it take longer to boil salt water than fresh water?

Yes, salt water will take longer to boil than fresh water because the presence of salt increases the boiling point of the water. This happens because the salt disrupts the process of water molecules turning into steam, requiring more energy to reach the boiling point.


Does it take more heat to heat water or to boil water?

It takes more heat to boil water than to simply heat water. Unless the water is already at its boiling point.

Does salt increase boiling time?

If your question means: If salt is added to water will it take longer to boil using the same conditions to boil fresh water? Adding salt elevates the boiling point of water so the mass of water has to be heated to a higher temperature to boil, therefore, boiling time is increased.


Why does half a full kettle take less time to boil a full one?

That is not possible a full kettle has more water,therefore it will take longer to boil.


Why does it a take a full kettle of water to boil longer than a half full kettle?

The more water in the kettle, the longer it will take to reach boiling point. This is why it is wasteful in energy to boil a full kettle if you only want to brew a small cup of tea.


Why putting less water in kettle will help use less energy?

because it takes less time for the water to boil. I f you put more water in the kettle it will take a longer time for it to boil which takes in more energy

Do salt water boil faster than non salt water?

Adding a salt to a substance changes its boiling and freezing points, but it lowers its freezing point and raises its boiling point. So, salt water actually takes more heat to boil because the salt has raised the boiling point.
