The salt alters the boiling point of the water so that it is lower, hence the faster boiling time.
Actually, the addition of salt to water elevates its boiling point. This can be proven by a simple experiment.
Boil water in a pot on the stove. Just as the water is starting to boil add copious amounts of salt. You should find that the water ceases to boil.
If the water were to commence to boil more vigorously then this would confirm that the boiling point is depressed.
The reason for the elevated boiling point is that the addition of salt (a polar compound) creates and additional bond between itself and the (polar) water molecules. This bond represents additional energy that must now be over-come to make the water boil.
What else can I help you with?
Does salt water boil faster than water with pepper?
No, salt water does not boil faster than water with pepper. Adding salt or pepper to water may change its boiling point slightly, but the difference is not significant enough to affect the time it takes to boil.
How much salt do you put in to make the water boil faster?
Adding salt to water actually increases its boiling point, so it will take longer for saltwater to boil compared to plain water. It is not recommended to add salt solely to make the water boil faster.
What would boil faster salt water or unsalted water?
Salt water boils more rapidly then unsalted water.
Does salt added to water make the water heat up faster than water without salt added and if both are heated to a boil?
NO Normal water boils faster because salt (sodium chloride) breaks up very slowly and since its salt water. The salt binds itself with the molecules of the water therefore increasing the boiling point, hence making it slower to boil. In comparison to normal water, salt water takes longer to boil than normal water.
How does adding salt to water effect how it boils?
Raises the temperature at which the water boilsAdding salt does not make the water boil faster, but makes the water boil at a higher temperature than 100 degrees Celsius. This may allow you to cook food in that water faster than in plain boiling water.
Does water boil faster if it contains salt?
Salty water boils at a higher temperature than pure water does.
Does pure water boil faster with salt added?
I don't know, but that would be a really good experimate to try.
Does water boil faster than salt water why?
== ==
Why add salt in water?
salt helps to bring the water to the boil faster.
Does drinking water boil faster then salt water?
yes
When boiling water what does salt do?
makes it boil faster
Does salt water boil faster than water with pepper?
No, salt water does not boil faster than water with pepper. Adding salt or pepper to water may change its boiling point slightly, but the difference is not significant enough to affect the time it takes to boil.
Does lemon water boil faster than salt water?
yes
Does sea salt boil water faster than table salt?
Yes
Why does plain water boil faster than water with salt in it?
salt has to break down first
Do water evaporate faster or slower with salt in it?
Pure water is evaporated faster.
Does salt water or plain water freeze faster?
Pure water freeze faster.
