Adding salt (sodium chloride) to water will make it boil at a HIGHER temperature. See Ebullioscopic Constants.

Conversely water will freeze at a lower temperature ( Cryoscopic constants).

Also increasing/decreasing the gas pressure over water will make it boil at a higher/lower temperaturte. Note trying boil water to make a hot drink on Mount Everest.

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.


Does adding sugar to a liquid make it boil faster?

yes


Does water covered boil faster?

No, water that is covered does not boil faster. Covering the pot can actually trap heat and make the water boil slower.


Adding what to water will make it boil the fastest propanol octanol C25H52?

Propanol has the lowest boiling point of the three, and adding it to water will therefore make the water boil fastest.


Does salt makes water boils faster?

Yes, adding salt to water can slightly increase its boiling point, but it won't make the water boil significantly faster. The main purpose of adding salt to water when cooking is to enhance flavor, not to speed up the boiling process.


Does covering water make it boil faster?

Covering water can make it boil faster because it traps the heat and prevents it from escaping, increasing the temperature of the water more quickly.


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 covering the pot make it boil faster?

Covering the pot can make water boil faster because it traps heat and prevents it from escaping, which increases the temperature of the water more quickly.


What is hot water made of?

hot water is made of molecules that can move faster and faster and you can boil or microwave the water to make it become hotter and hotter


Does covering a pot make it boil faster?

Covering a pot can make it boil faster because it traps heat and prevents it from escaping, which helps the water reach boiling temperature more quickly.


How will adding different different flavors of kool-aid to water affect the waters boiling point?

the Kool-Aid will make the water boil faster


When salt is added to boiling water at 100 degrees Celsius will the water boil faster or slower?

Adding salt to boiling water will actually make the water boil slower. Salt increases the boiling point of water by raising its boiling point temperature. As a result, it will take longer for the water to reach the new, higher boiling point temperature and thus boil.
