the mass of the substance
Well, the mass of the molecules of the substance. The amount of materail does not affect the boiling point.
However, the forces between the molecules does affect how much energy is needed to change the liquid to vapor. Heavier molecules have higher forces. Polar molecules have higher forces, but not as high as charged ions.
Also, the atmospheric pressure on the liquid affects the boiling point. Higher pressure helps keep the liquid in the liquid state. Lower pressure makes it easier for the vapor to break out. Water boils at a lower temperature in the mountains than it does on the sea shore. That's why there are special directions for baking cakes at high altitude.

How does boiling point and melting point find a substance?
what is the melting point and boiling point of substance
Does gases have a boiling point?
Gas is a phase of a substance. Boiling is the point when a substance chains from liquid to gas. So if it is already gas, it has already reached the boiling point.
Boiling point of polar molecule?
The boiling point is specific for each substance.
Temperature at which a substance boils?
Every substance has their own boiling point.
The temperature at which a given substance will change from a liquid into a gas?
The temperature in which a given substance will change from a liquid to a gas is its boiling point. Every element, compound and mixture has a different boiling point. Use an SI data book or the internet to find the boiling point of a particular suubstance.
What substance is affected by a boiling point?
The substances volume is affected by a boiling point
How does boiling point and melting point find a substance?
what is the melting point and boiling point of substance
How does the density of water affect its boiling point?
The boiling point (of any compound) is ONLY affected by (vapor) pressure. Density of a gas (vapor) is another property that -in another way- may be affected by pressure.
Is the boiling point of a substance an example of a chemical property?
The boiling point of a substance is an example of a physical property of that substance.
Is boiling point a chemical property in a substance?
Boiling point is a physical property not a chemical property.
What is the boiling point for celcious?
Celsius is not a substance and so does not have a boiling point
What is the substance of boiling point?
The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes from liquid state to gaseous or vapor state.
Does gases have a boiling point?
Gas is a phase of a substance. Boiling is the point when a substance chains from liquid to gas. So if it is already gas, it has already reached the boiling point.
How is the temperature of a liquid substance affected when it Is boiling?
it increases
What type of substance is a boiling point?
A boiling point isn't a substance at all. The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes from liquid to gas. For example, the boiling point of water at standard pressure is 100°C or 212°F. The boiling point of helium is -269°C or -452°F or 4.2K. The boiling point of iron is 2,862°C or 5,182°F.
Boiling point of polar molecule?
The boiling point is specific for each substance.
Temperature at which a substance boils?
Every substance has their own boiling point.
