How could a liquids boiling point be used to determine if it is a mixture or a pare substance?

pure substances have a distinct boiling point. Adding more heat just makes the substance boil faster but the temperature stays the same. A mixture does not have a distinct boiling point. Adding more heat will make the temperature increase.

What is liquid's boiling point?

Boiling point is the temperature in which a substance in a liquid state turns to a gas state. In a pure substance (an element or 1 compound) that temperature is a unique property. For example, pure water boils at 100 degrees Celsius. Methanol has a boiling point of 64.7 degrees Celsius. In pure substances the temperature time graph makes a plateau. The boiling point is the same as the condensation point (where a gas turns into a liquid) for that substance.


Does the temp of the water change as it boils?

Water stays at a constant temperature when it boils unless it is under pressure. More heat just makes it boils faster. The boiling temperature is around 212F or 100C varying somewhat with the altitude and the purity of the water.
