When a liquid is heated to a temperature at which particles throughout the liquid have enough kinetic energy to vaporize, the liquid begins to boil.

Where are the Goldilocks condition on earth that life as we know it must have to exist?

The temperature has to right to allow liquid water to exist naturally. The temperature must not vary too much. The atmosphere needs the right amount of oxygen. There must be enough water for oceans to exist but not too much so that land areas are available for LAWKI (life as we know it).


Is boiling an exothermic reaction?

No, boiling is endothermic as in order to boil a liquid must gain energy from its surroundings.

Are all solutions must be in the liquid state?

No, solutions can exist in different states of matter, not just in the liquid state. Solutions can exist in the solid, liquid, or gas state depending on the solvent and solute involved in the mixture.

What elements exist in liquid form?

Elements such as mercury and bromine exist in liquid form at room temperature. Mercury is a transition metal that is liquid at room temperature, while bromine is a nonmetal that is also liquid at room temperature.


What attractive forces must be overcome to boil water?

To boil water, the attractive forces within the liquid water molecules (hydrogen bonding) must be overcome to convert water from a liquid to a gas. This requires input of energy to increase the kinetic energy of the water molecules so they can break free from each other and escape into the gas phase.

One condition that must exist before the Hardy-Weinberg principle can be applied is a large population size to prevent genetic drift from significantly affecting allele frequencies.


Why does plain water boil faster then salt water?

A liquid boils when the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure. The presence of salt in the water reduces the vapor pressure of the water at the temperature at which plain or distilled water will boil. Since the temperature of the salt water must be higher to reach the same vapor pressure as the atmosphere, it takes longer to boil.
