Higher altitude decreases the boiling point of water. Boiling point is defined as the point at which the vapour pressure of the substance above the liquid is equal to the external atmospheric pressure. Since the external atmospheric pressure is lower at higher altitudes, a lower vapour pressure of water is required for water to boil and therefore a lower temperature is required to achieve the desired vapour pressure.
Hydrogen bonding is the strongest intermolecular attractive force. It causes the boiling point to be elevated since the molecules are more attracted to each other and thus require more energy to break from the liquid phase.
The boiling point of water will be greatest at that point on Earth that is the closest to sea level. Boiling point of water depends on the atmospheric pressure. The boiling point of water varies depending on the weather. At low atmospheric temperatures due to weather or due to being up a mountain, the water will boil below its "normal" boiling point of 100 oC
The boiling point of distilled water is 100 degrees Celsius at 1 atmosphere. The bubbles formed on the sides of vessel at the time of heating water are nothing but the air trapped in water. In general, the boiling point of a solution changes with respect to the pressure surrounding the liquid at that particular time. And this change in boiling temperature is directly proportional to pressure. In degrees C the boiling point of water drops .53 degrees per 500 feet. So at 500 feet the boiling point of water is ~ 99.5 degrees. Please note: A factor that elevates water boiling point is the presence of solute or other compounds. This is known as boiling point elevation. To be more precise, the boiling point of water in pure form is lower than a salted water or any other solution prepared by adding compounds.
At sea level the boiling temperature of water is 212o Fahrenheit. At different air pressures the boiling temperature changes. Higher air pressures require higher temperatures to boil. For example, if you go to a mountain top you could lower air pressure until water could boil at say 99o Fahrenheit. If you change substances, from water to something else, that substance would have its own individual boiling temperature, the point at which it changes from liquid to gas.
Pepper has the least effect on the temperature or reaction to boiling water ,As well pepper does not dissolve in boiling water like other grains.
The boiling point of water decrease when the altitude increase and the atmospheric pressure decrease.
high altitude
In general, the higher the altitude, the lower the pressure, and the lower the pressure the lower the boiling point.
As altitude increases, the air pressure decreases. This results in lower boiling points for water because there is less atmospheric pressure pushing down on the water. However, the freezing point of water is not significantly affected by altitude.
At an altitude of 1500 metres, pure water will boil at approx 95 deg C.
Boiling point is dependent on air pressure. Air pressure is dependent on altitude. Durban is coastal, almost sea level. Johannesburg is inland, quite a bit higher. High altitude = low air pressure = low boiling point.
All you have to do to reduce the boiling point of water is go to a higher altitude and boil it.
100 co at sea level, it varies what altitude your at.
The boiling point of water (at standard pressure) is 100 deg C. The mean air pressure in Dehli depends mainly on its altitude and on the weather circumstances: high or low pressure area.
The boiling point of water in Durban, South Africa is around 100 degrees Celsius at sea level. However, the boiling point can change slightly depending on factors such as altitude and atmospheric pressure.
The boiling point of water changes with altitude. While it boils at 100C at sea level, at the summit of Mount Everest water would boil at a lower temperature of 72C.
Yes. The boiling point of water is lower at higher altitudes because there is less atmospheric pressure.
