after 100 degree celcious,water gets vapourised. this is because latent heat of fusion is involved in it. latent heat means hidden heat or energy.

The increased temperature gives the molecules more kinetic energy, this makes them vibrate more etc.

Why does steam at 100C damage the skin than water at 100C?

I think it's the other way - 100°C liquid water causes more damage than 100°C gaseous water. Liquid water has molecules that are much more densely packed than gaseous water. Since temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy, the molecules in liquid form move just as fast as the molecules in gaseous form. So if you stick your finger in liquid water, much more molecules will hit you. Unless that extra enthalpy of vaporization causes a difference in speeds of the molecules, then that extra energy required to vaporize water will be transferred to you, and you will feel more pain.


A thimbleful of water at 100c has a highrer temperature than a swimming pool full of water at 20c but the pool has more thermal energy than the timble explain?

To raise the temperature of water in a thimble of water from 0 to 100 requires a small amount of thermal energy. To do the same with a swimming pool would require putting a huge amount of thermal energy into the water comparatively speaking.


How does adding food coloring to water affect its evaporation?

No, they boil at the same rate regardless of whether there is food colouring or not.


Which requires more energy converting 50 grams of ice at 0C to 50 grams of water at 100C or converting 50 grams of water at 100C to 50 grams of steam at 100C?

would require more heartmelting 0 c ice turning100 water into steam These terms only appear in links pointing to this page: 500 g500 g c


What is the difference of boiling points between sea water and normal water?

Sea water has a higher boiling point than water, meaning that it will have to be heated more then pure water to boil. This temperature depends on the concentration of the salt in the salt water. The boiling point of normal water at normal pressure is 100C/212 F while for sea water it is 2 C higher or more depending on the salt concentration/impurities in the sea water. The difference in the boiling points would be 2 C or greater.

What happens to the energy used to evaporate water?

It goes into the molecules of water vapour, which are more energetic than those of liquid water


Why steam at 100 degree c is more effective for heating purpose than water?

steam is more effective because the particles of steam have absorbed extra energy in the form of latent heat of vaporization apparent temp is 100c and actual temp is more than 100c whereas the actual temp of water is 100c


When will water boil at temperatures less than 100C?

When the gas phase pressure is less than 1 atmosphere.


Will water boil at 100C at the top of a mountain?

no because at the top of the mountain its less pressure than at the sea level so it will take more time to boil


Explain why a watched pot of water never boils in terms of specific and latent heats?

water vapourizes when its temperature is higher than 100 degree Celsius. when the pot of water is immersed in 100C water bath, its temperature attains its maximum at 100C so no vapourization will occur.

Why does water not boil at 100 degrees celsius in Atlanta GA?

100C is at sea level. Water boils at different temperatures based on the altitude you are at. Atlanta is 738 to 1050 feet in elevation. In Denver Co. at 5,280 feet you will find it boils at far less than 100C.


Is steam hotter than boiling water?

Technically speaking steam has a higher temperature, but boiling water often has more heat energy per volume. Steam starts at 100degrees C, which is the absolute maximum temperature of boiling water, but steam can be much much hotter, all the way up to thousands of degrees. However, steam as a gas is much less dense than water, and so steam at 100C will injure a person much less than water at 100C.


What is the definition of poly energetic?

Poly means more than one, or many. So Poly energetic would mean many different energies.


Chemical analysis of water?

It evaporates on 100C and it dissociates into H+ and OH- ions it has dipole movement. It is polar and its force of adhesion is lesser than its cohesion
