The boiling point of any liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure. So if the atmospheric pressure is lower, it will take a lower temperature to make the vapor pressure equal to that of atmospheric pressure. At hill-stations, the air is generally thinner due to the altitude and the atmospheric pressure is also lower. Here, it requires less than 100oC temperature to reach the point where the vapor pressure of water reaches that of air. So, water boils below 100oC at hill stations.
What else can I help you with?
What temp Fahrenheit does what water boil?
Water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
Can water boil as hot as 800 degrees Fahrenheit?
No. Water boils at 212 F. The boiling cools it and keeps it from getting hotter than that. Water can be put under pressure and heated higher than 212, but it does not boil while it is heated under pressure. That is why car modern can radiator caps are pressure caps.
How many degrees f does water boil at?
the boiling point of water in F is 212 degrees and for C is 100 degrees
How many more degrees does 87 degrees does it need to boil?
If its in Celsius then another 13 degrees are needed because water boils at 100 degrees Celsius
Does sea water boil at 98 degrees Celsius?
The boiling point of seawater varies with the level of salt it contains. On average, sea water at sea level will boil at around 103 degrees Celsius.
Where does water boil at less than 100 degrees Celsius?
On top of a mountain
Why does water boil at 100 degrees Celsius on a mountain?
I didn't know it did. I don't think so.
Which place does water boil at 68 degrees?
This place is the Everest Mountain (Chomolungma), 8 848 m altitude.
Where is faster to boil on top of the mountain or on the ground of a mountain?
on the top of the mountain as pressure is greater so water will boil quicker
Predict whether water would boil on top of a mountain at a higher or lower temperature than at sea level?
Water would boil higher at the top of a mountain than at sea level. This is because there is less atmospheric pressure at higher elevations.
What degrees to boil water?
102
How can water made to boil at 95 degrees celsius or 105 degrees celsius?
Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius at standard atmospheric pressure. To boil water at 95 degrees Celsius, you can increase the pressure in a sealed container, which raises the boiling point. Similarly, to boil water at 105 degrees Celsius, you would need to decrease the pressure in a sealed container to lower the boiling point.
At what temperature does water reach a roaring boil?
Water reaches a roaring boil at 212 degrees Fahrenheit or 100 degrees Celsius.
How long does it take to boil an egg at 200 degrees Celsius?
Water evaporates at 100 so it would not be possible to boil an egg at 200
Will water boil at 97.0 degrees Celsius in the US?
No, since there is no such thing as degrees "celius". Water will boil at 97.0 degrees Celsius at approx 850 metres above sea level.
What would happen to a sample of water at 30 degrees c if it is heated until the temperature reaches 120 degrees c?
The water would first heat up and reach its boiling point at 100 degrees Celsius. Once it reaches 100 degrees Celsius, it would start boiling and convert into steam at a constant temperature of 100 degrees Celsius until all the water has evaporated.
What does water boil at?
100 degrees Celsius 212 degrees Fahrenheit
