Why doesn't water temperature go any higher when on a hotplate?

Once water reaches its boiling point (100 degrees Celsius), the water will not get hotter. Instead, it will invest the extra energy it gets from the hotplate into converting the water from liquid to gas. The water will evaporate instead of getting hotter.

Which has the higher temperature - boiling water or ice?
boiling water
What is the principle involved in pressure cooker?
At higher pressures, water boils at a higher temperature. A pressure cooker lets you cook at a higher pressure than regular saucepans so you can have a higher boiling temperature
Does honey evaporate?
yes, it evaporates but at higher temperature than Water
Which laboratory equipment would most likely be used for testing a substance for the presence of monosaccharides?
A beaker of water, an indicator, and a hotplate
At what temperature does osmosis work best?
I think that the osmosis works best at higher temperature. At higher temperature, the water molecules will have more kinetic energy and move faster thus increasing the process of osmosis.
What does water have to do with air temperature?
it doesnt
When a saucepan full of water is on a hotplate how is the heat transfered?
radinate
Does water when cooled turn into water vapor?
Water can evaporate no matter what temperature it is. It has a higher rate of vaporization at higher temperature however.
Why the temperature of water is higher at the higher waterfall?
Because the water in a waterfall is higher than water on the ground
Why doesnt the water temperature go up after boiling for alomg time?
At 100 oC, liquid water turns into vapor water (steam). The temperature of the water can't go up, because it cannot stay a liquid at any higher temperature. All of the energy from the heat source is consumed in turning the water into steam, and then heating the steam.
Does sand or water have a higher final temperature?
water
Why is the temperature of the boiling water higher than the temperature of an ordinary top water?
When you boil water, the velocity of moving molecules in water gets increased so as the intermolecular energy of water. For that the temperature of hot water is higher then normal or cold water.
How can you tell if water in oil?
The easiest way is to flick a few drops onto a hotplate , if it spits it has coolant in it . take care as fluid can ignite at high temperature. ATF should just smoke
How hot does 300 ml of water get after being on a hotplate for 30 sec?
To answer this question we would need to know the BTUs of the hot plate, the area of the hotplate's surface, the interconnecting area of the hotplates surface and the water container. The Heat capacity of water we can get from a reference book.
What is the temperature of water when it begins boiling?
The boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit. However, water boils at a lower temperature at higher altitude. Salt water boils at a higher temperature than pure water.
Which would have higher temperature change water or aluminum?
Starting from the same temperature and for the same amount of heat input, aluminum would wind up with a higher temperature than water because water has a higher heat capacity (it takes more energy to raise its temperature) than aluminum.
How does temperature effect water tornadoes?
Water tornadoes, properly called waterspouts, form best when the water temperature is higher than the air temperature.
