Water boils faster on top of a mountain than at sea level because the boiling point of water is reduced with reduced atmospheric pressure.

Where is faster to boil on top of the mountain or on the ground of a mountain?

on the top of the mountain as pressure is greater so water will boil quicker


How do you think boiling of water will change on sea level as compared to boiling water on a mountain top?

Water boils at a lower temperature on a mountain top due to lower atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes. This means that water will boil faster on a mountain compared to sea level where the pressure is higher.


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


Predict whether water would boil on top of a mountain at a higher or lower temperature than at sea level?

Water would boil higher at the top of a mountain than at sea level. This is because there is less atmospheric pressure at higher elevations.


Why does water boil faster in the mountains than the city?

Water boils faster in the mountains because the air pressure is lower at higher altitudes. Lower air pressure reduces the boiling point of water, causing it to reach boiling temperature faster than at sea level where air pressure is higher.


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.


Does water boil faster than salt water why?

Why does water boil at a low temperature on a high mountain compared too at sea level?

Because there is less air pressure.


Will water boil faster if there is less of it?

A small amount of water will reach it's boiling point sooner than a large amount of water. It will not boil faster.


Dose soda boil faster then water?

no it does not


Why Poes water on top of a mountain boil at a lower temperature than at sea level?

It is the effect of air pressure. The air pressure at the top of a mountain is less than the air pressure at sea level. The effect of air pressure on a water surface is to prevent or oppose water molecules escaping from the surface. The greater the air pressure, the more heat energy is needed to allow the water molecules to escape and so at sea level the water will boil at a higher temperature than if it were on top of a mountain.


Does drinking water boil faster then salt water?

yes
