Water vapor and steam are the same thing?
Yes, but that stuff you can see isn't steam. Neither steam nor water vapor are visible. The could of white stuff you can see above a boiling kettle is water droplets formed by the condensation of the water vapor/steam as it collides with the cooler air outside the kettle.
Does water and cloud and steam evaporate?
Clouds and steam are forms of evaporated water. Water is the main base for evaporation to occur. Bot clouds and steam can condense in a cool temperature, while water can bothe condense and evaporate. So they are not much alike.
What happens to the temperature of boiling water if you turn up the heat on the stove?
The boiling point of water is 100 degrees celsius. The water will evaporate at boiling point. By the way what do you mean "what happens to the temperature of boiling water" if you think about it, it does not make sense.
Is water vapor gas above boiling water?
it is above
When boiling water what particular gas evaporates first oxygen and hydrogen?
When boiling water, the elements do not seperate. The only substance that evaporates is water as 'steam'.
Why is steam made when boiling water?
Steam is the gaseous form of water above its boiling point. When you see 'steam', that is not really steam, it's warm-water droplets in the air.
Does Mars have clouds?
yes they do have clouds as it has water and the sun to melt it into steam which forms clouds This is true, but it is too cold for the water to evaporate, the boiling point, or the point at wich water evaporates is above 32 degrees F. the average temperature on mars is about -75 degrees F.
What is the 3 states of matter in which water can be found?
Solid (ice), liquid (water), gas (steam). Water can also be found in the form of a vapor, which is water droplets suspended in air, e.g., clouds, fog, and the vapor above boiling water, commonly but mistakenly called steam.
Why it is not possible to produce steam in open vessel?
Steam is produced when water vapour condenses in air. If the air in a vessel is cold enough, steam can be produced in it, open or closed. Mostly, say in a saucepan, the air above the boiling water is heated in the process of boiling, so it is too hot for the water vapour to condense in the saucepan. However, if you pour some very hot water into a cold bath (for example) you may well notice clouds of steam forming above it.
What is the difference between clouds and steam?
Steam is made when water changes it's physical state from liquid to gas from heat. Clouds are formed when millions of water and dust particles gather together. Also, clouds don't form over boiling pots of water
Why is steam made when you boil water?
Steam is the gaseous form of water above its boiling point. When you see 'steam', that is not really steam, it's warm-water droplets in the air.
What is the name for the process in which steam to water?
The Process from......Steam to Water is condensationWater to Steam is evaporationWater to Ice is FreezingIce to Water is MeltingHope that helps..... :)
Is there a difference in taste between steaming and boiling a live lobster?
When you steam the lobster, it is placed in a basket above a pot of boiling water. When you are boiling the lobster, it is placed directly into the boiling water.
What is the point of boiling?
100 °C or above, water (liquid) turns into steam (gas)
Why is steam hotter then boiling water?
because steam is boiling water is hot it turns into a gas therefore you get steam
Does water boil above 100 Celsius?
No. When water reaches 100 Celsius it becomes steam and is no longer boiling water.
What is water in gas form called?
Steam, which can't be seen, not to be confused with the white clouds that come from a boiling kettle that is water vapour or condensed steam. If you look closely at the spout of a boiling kettle you will see that close to the spout it is clear that is steam or water in its gas form.
