In a pressure cooker a lid is screwed tightly onto a pot so that the air pressure in the pot is increased What effect if any will this have on the boiling point of water in the pot?

Increasing the air pressure in the pot will raise the boiling point of water. This is because with increased pressure, water molecules require more energy to overcome the higher pressure and vaporize, leading to a higher boiling point than at normal atmospheric pressure.


Why wont water leave a covered pot when boiling?

When there's a lid on the pot, the pressure of the steam builds up until the steam raises the lid a tiny amount (you may feel the lid floating on its rim since it will spin easily) and the water escapes the pot in the form of steam or water vapor. A pressure cooker is a pot with a lid firmly attached to the pot via clamps or some other means. This does prevent the water from leaving the pot. A large build up of pressure can cause the pot to explode, To prevent this a pressure cooker has escape valve(s) built in to release steam when the pressure is too high.Then water will leave the pot.
