Safflower - 510 F (266 C) Soybean - 495 F (257 C) Corn - 475 F (246 C) Peanut - 440 F (227 C) Sesame - 420 F (216 C) Olive - 375 F (191 C) (from http://wywahoos.org/wahoos/cookbook/tools.htm) Oil will actually begin to smoke or burn first though.

Why is it better to use coconut oil for frying than water?

Coconut oil is not very volatile. It has the same boiling point with water. But water vaporizes quicker than cooking oil.


Would oil alter the boling point of water?

Oil is not soluble in water; the boiling point remain unchanged.


What boils quicker oil water or washing up liquid?

Water boils quicker than oil and washing up liquid. This is because water has a lower boiling point compared to oil and washing up liquid. Oil and washing up liquid have higher boiling points, which means it will take longer for them to reach the boiling point compared to water.


Which has a lower boiling point A alcohol B water C oil or D ice?

oil


Can vegetable oil boil more quickly than water?

No, because oil has a higher boiling point.


What is the boiling point of almond oil?

The boiling point of almond oil is approximately 420°F (216°C).


When are oil baths and water baths used respectively for melting point determination?

Oil baths are typically used for high-temperature melting point determinations, where the sample needs to be heated to a temperature above the boiling point of water. Water baths, on the other hand, are used for lower temperature melting point determinations, as water has a lower boiling point compared to oil.


What is the boiling point of crude oil?

Crude oil is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons with different boiling points. The boiling point of crude oil can vary depending on its composition, but typically falls within the range of 300°C to 400°C.


What has a higher boiling point than water?

Oil is a prime candidate for this answer. Oil, based on type (re: sunflower seed, olive, peanut, etc.) boils at various temperatures between approx. 450 to 550 degrees Fahrenheit.


What is the boiling point of 30w oil?

The boiling point of 30w oil can vary depending on the specific composition of the oil. Generally, the boiling point of motor oils, including 30w oil, can range between 400-600 degrees Fahrenheit.


Why is oil better to cook with than water?

Oil has a higher boiling point than water and so reaches a higher temperature than water which is important for most foods. In addition, oil has more flavour than water.


What are the condensing and boiling points of cooking oil?

The boiling points of cooking oils vary with the type of oil. Boiling points will generally fall in the 300's and 400's of degrees Fahrenheit. But there is a bit more that should be understood. Oil that is boiling has already passed its smoke point and is decomposing. It is undergoing chemical changes that make it (and food cooked in it) taste bad. By the time oil "boils" with added heat, it is at or beyond its flash point. The flash point is a temperature what the oil has reached where the vapor coming off the hot oil can burst into flame. That's very bad, in case you're wondering. Oils heated to boiling are not "oils" any more as they've begun to decompose. That's why there are no tables of the boiling points of cooking oils. There won't be any tables of the condensation points for the same reasons. Boil an oil and you won't have that oil any more. It's not like boiling water. When we boil water, it doesn't change chemical composition, and what water doesn't boil is still water. Condense the boiled water (the vapor or steam) and you have more water. It isn't like that for oil. Use the link below to a related question to see a similar take on things.
